Main indications and long-term outcomes of reoperation after initial repair of tetralogy of Fallot
Background and Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze our indications, surgical procedures, and clinical outcomes of patients undergoing reoperation after surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Methods: Thirty seven consecutive patients who underwent reoperation late after intra-cardiac repair of TOF within a period of 10 years were assessed. Results: The most co...
متن کاملCognitive development after Tetralogy of Fallot repair
Methods This paper studies a group of 71 patients operated in Heart Institute between September 1st 2001 and July 1st 2006, all surgically corrected without prior palliations. The surgical techniques were: transannular patch (46), infundibular patch ± PA patch (17), and transatrial and transpulmonary correction (8). The patients were divided into 2 groups, operated below 1 year of age and above...
متن کاملArrhythmias After Tetralogy of Fallot Repair
Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease, with a good outcome after total surgical correction. In spite of a low perioperative mortality and a good quality of life, late sudden death remains a significant clinical problem, mainly related to episodes of sustained ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Fibro-fatty substitution around infundibular res...
متن کاملAspergillus Fumigatus Endocarditis after Total Correction of Tetralogy of Fallot
There are few studies about post-cardiac surgery fungal infections especially by Aspergillus fumigatus. In this paper we report a case of Aspergillus fumigatus endocarditis after tetralogy of Fallot total correction (TFTC), and permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation. A five-year-old female patient with current history of total correction of tetralogy of fallot was admitted in Rajaie Ca...
متن کاملRight ventricular myocardial activation delay in adult patients with right bundle branch block late after repair of Tetralogy of Fallot.
Electromechanical interaction, with prolonged QRS duration due to right ventricular (RV) overload, has been described as a predictor of unfavorable outcome in patients late after correction of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Aim of our study was to evaluate myocardial function and activation delay of both left and right ventricles in TOF patients. Doppler echo, treadmill test and pulsed Tissue Doppl...
