Abstract Objectives: To determine overall and reintervention-free survival for repaired Maltese tetralogy
of Fallot patients and to investigate the potential impact of gender, age at repair, genetic syndromes, previous palliation, and type of repair on these outcomes.
Design: All 130 tetralogy of Fallot patients born before the end of 1997 included in the local database were extracted. Surgical repair type, age at repair and operative survival were analyzed among
the 103/130 repaired patients. Kaplan–Meier survival analyses were performed on the 75 repair
survivors with complete follow-up data (mean follow-up 26.37 ± 9.27 (range 9.95–51.21) years).
Results: Patients born after… More >
