摘要：CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE PREDISPOSES TO DEVELOPMENT OF CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE,BECAUSE OF THE PATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES THAT OCCURS DUE TO AN ABNORMALSTRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL HEART, SUCH AS CHRONIC HYPOXIA AND ANOMALIES IN THE RENALBLOOD FLOW. ALSO, RENAL FUNCTION IS AFFECTED NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THEPATHOPHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES, BUT ALSO BY THE SURGICAL CORRECTION OF THE HEARTANOMALY. CURRENT STUDIES NOTICED THAT CRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE HAS A HIGHER INCIDENCEIN PATIENTS WITH CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE. DATA FROM LITERATURE SUGGEST THAT 30 TO50% OF PATIENTS WITH CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE WILL PRESENT RENAL DYSFUNCTION.
