This is a retrospective, descriptive study done on 65patients at specialized cardiac center at Ahmed Gasimhospital Kh, North.All patients who underwent surgery in the period between 1998-2001. Joined the study. The study is to evaluate the surgicaloutcome & early complications. There were 23(46.6%) malesand 32(58.4%) females.Patients below the age of 10 years represent 23.07% while thosebetween the age group 11-30 represent 70.7%. Female patientswere found to predominate on male patients in certain cardiacdefects such as patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect andventricular septal defect, while males predominate in Fallot’stetralogy and congenital aortic stenosis.The majority of patients found to belong to tribes in the northand middle Sudan. Complete absence of patients from southerntribes was noted in this study.In this study the commonest cardiac defects who wereoperated upon are patent ductus arteriosus (18 patients),6atrial septal defect (16 patients), Fallot’s tetralogy (9patients).Most of the patients (67.6%) were diagnosed by consultants,(21.3%) by medical registrar and (10.2%) by medical assistant.The clinical presentation was characterized by dyspnoea(84.6%), palpitation (53.8%) , fatigue (38.4%), cough (23.07%)and cyanosis (15.3%).The postoperative complications were reported in sevenpatients. They included wound infection (n =2), aortic aneurysm(n = 1) and heart failure (n = 2).Three patients died (mortality of 4.6%).This study showed that the outcome of surgery in treatingcongenital cardiac defects is good, despite the late presentationof the patients and the short experience of the staff in a recentlyestablished center.Further studies are recommended to delineate the relationshipbetween sex and occurrence of certain cardiac defects. Routineclinical examination of children at birth and at school age willallow early detection and early management.
