This focused issue on “Current Management Aspects in Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD): Part II” is edited by Prof. Yskert von Kodolitsch from Deutsches Aortenzentrum Hamburg, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany and Prof. Harald Kaemmerer from Department of Congenital Heart Disease and Pediatric Cardiology, German Heart Center Munich, Munich, Germany.
This second issue focuses on “novel challenges” as the second innovation force, in which colleagues present their thoughts and data on novel approaches and solutions in ACHD care. In doing so, we decided not to be very directive when suggesting topics, but rather to give room to let the issue grow through its own dynamics. This approach seems to best represent the areas of ACHD with strongest growth momentum.
