Abstract Background: The surgical outcomes of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) have evolved dramatically and have resulted in
lower mortality rate. Currently, the many cardiac centers have a trend to early single-stage complete repair more
than a staged repair. However, the patients who have an early primary repair were required transannular patch
augmentation of a pulmonary valve frequently. This effect has been developed a chronic pulmonary insufficiency
may lead to right ventricular dilation, dysfunction. In this era, the aim of treatment of TOF is attempted to preserve pulmonary valve annulus for prevent right ventricular dysfunction in the future.… More >
