The human heart and lung are the most important organs in a human's body. These organs work together to circulate blood through the body as well as provide a steady source of oxygen. The heart pumps blood from the body's largest vein, called the vena cava, to smaller vessels near it called pulmonary veins. These vessels then carry oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to all parts of the body.
Pediatric cardiac surgery is a surgical procedure that repairs congenital heart defects in infants, children, and adolescents. The procedure is performed by cardiothoracic surgeons who specialize in the operating room techniques necessary for pediatric cardiac surgery.

We all know that the heart is a vital organ in the body. Without optimal operation, the heart can trigger a laundry list of symptoms and problems throughout other organ systems of the body. We simply cannot live without a heart, and a heart that's not functioning properly won't provide the same quality of life as a normal heart. That's why pediatric cardiac surgery takes place so frequently, to correct heart defects and abnormalities that would limit the life of children and adults.
