Abstract
Failure to thrive is frequent in infants with congenital hearth defect and may negatively influence
the surgical correction. Besides the prenatal problems such as an embriopathy,
other factors such as malabsorption and reduced caloric intake may favour the malnutrition
in these patients. An appropriate and timely nutritional intervention is requested. Several
cases improve by simply optimizing the caloric density of the formula, but enteral nutrition
is often requested to garantee he needed calories to the infant.
