What is the difference between coronary and congenital heart disease?

I am filling out a form for my family health history, doctor, and he was wondering if anyone in my family has had coronary artery disease or heart defect. I know that my mother has heart disease, but I do not know what type it is. One of the arteries of his heart was blocked and the fact they had provided with a stent in the artery to open it up – it is called angioplasty. Is it innate or coronary artery? Thank you.
