Center for Congenital Heart Defects

The Center for Congenital Heart Defects (Dutch) is part of the University Medical Center in Utrecht and offers a wide range of diagnostic procedures and treatment for congenital heart defects, in both children and adults. Children are treated at the Wilhelmina Children’s Hospital (WKZ); adult patients (Adult Congenital Heart Disease ACHD) at the UMC Utrecht. The two locations are directly linked and collaborate intensively in the UMC Utrecht Center for Congenital Heart Defects. In doing so, we have developed top-of-the range diagnostic processes, care, treatment and research.

We are looking forward to see you on January 31st and February 1st, 2025 in Utrecht!

Gregor Krings, Bram van Wijk, Paul Schoof, Gabriëlle van Iperen, Trinette Steenhuis and  Heleen van der Zwaan
