Abstract
Introduction: There may be several causes for the main congenital heart defects. Genetic factors and maternal factors, including poorly controlled chronic diseases such as diabetes or phenylketonuria. Heart transplantation is the gold standard surgical approach for treating heart failure. Objectives: To carry out a literature review on the physiological processes of heart transplantation in neonates with congenital heart disease, and to verify the main indications and contraindications for heart transplantation. Material and Methods: This article is a literature review, based on the methodology that sought to identify the physiological processes of heart transplantation in neonates with congenital heart disease through the analysis of pre-performed studies, and thirty-three (33) articles were selected for the preparation of this literature review. Results and discussion: Heart transplantation in children has become an option in complex congenital heart diseases and cardiomyopathies refractory to conventional therapy. Diagnostic research into the etiology of heart disease has advanced in the last decade, which significantly increases the chances of survival for children with congenital heart dysfunction. Another cardiac complication is babies with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Final considerations: The shortage of organ donors is still a major obstacle to transplantation in Brazil. Even in cases where the organ can be obtained from a living donor, the number of transplants is small compared to the demand from patients waiting for surgery.
