The Art of Congenital Cardiology: A Sampling of Representative Pieces from the Artwork of Dr Jamil Aboulhosn

This novel invited article is thanks to CardioNerds: a podcast and platform that democratizes cardiovascular education and invigorates passion for cardiovascular medicine and science. The CardioNerds team held an adult congenital heart disease artistic creations competition in early 2025 for which I (Jamil Aboulhosn) was honored to be selected as winner and asked to publish a piece in this journal, highlighting the role that art plays in my practice of adult congenital cardiology. By sharing select pieces from over the years I will try to take the reader on a short journey through how art helps me understand and teach anatomy, develop interventional and surgical procedures, express emotion, and unwind.
