Paediatric and Congenital Cardiothoracic Services At PHKL



What is Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)

Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) refers to structural abnormalities in the heart or great vessels that are present from birth. These defects can affect the heart's ability to pump blood efficiently or disrupt blood flow throughout the body. CHD varies in severity, from minor defects that may not require treatment to complex conditions requiring surgical intervention.

At Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur (PHKL), we are proud to provide world-class paediatric and congenital cardiothoracic (CT) services, addressing the complex and delicate needs of young patients with congenital and acquired heart conditions. Our care is inclusive of adults with congenital heart lesions.
