RESUMO
Mediastinitis after surgery for congenital heart disease has a great impact on morbidity and mortality. However, there are scarce studies focused on the epidemiology of postsurgical mediastinitis in pediatric patients. In this 18-year period retrospective study, the cumulative incidence of mediastinitis was low: 0.64%, (95% confidence interval: 0.36-1.1). Gram-negative bacilli were common (35%). The mortality rate was 7.1%, associated with fungal infection.
