Zwei weiß gerahmte Bilder in etwa A4 Größe übereinander an einer weißen Wand neben einem kleinen Fenster. Oben eine vereinfachte Darstellung vom Herz vor der OP (Aortenklappenatresie, LVOT mit verkleinertem Aortenbogen, VSD, ASD). Unten die Darstellung der Korrektur-OP, in der - against all ods - ein gut funktionierender Zwei-Kammer-Kreislauf hergestellt wurde.

Und die beiden Bilder von K2s komplexem Herzfehler (vor und nach OP, gezeichnet von chd.drawings/Insta) hängen nach 3 Jahren rumliegen nun auch ❤️‍🩹
