Congenital heart disease can affect any part of the heart, disrupting this regular movement of the blood circulation. Congenital disease may affect the arteries, veins, valves or walls of the buffer between the chambers of the heart or the heart muscle itself. The infection may be in one or several parts at the same time. For example, there may be a defect in one of the heart valves and at the same time there is a hole in the wall between the ventricles, or a problem in a valve and another problem in one of the arteries or veins. It may also be a complex type of infection that may affect the function of the heart significantly.
Pediatric cardiologists generally divide congenital heart disease into two main parts:
1-Diseases cause skin rupture (not necessarily obvious to parents).
2 - Diseases that do not cause skin rupture.
