بررسی عملکرد بطن‌ها با اکوکاردیوگرافی در نارسایی دریچه ریوی پس از جراحی تترالوژی فالوت

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. The systolic and diastolic function in both ventricles is altered even after successful corrective surgery for this defect with a transannular patch. Pulmonary regurgitation, a common complication after this treatment, is usually well tolerated in childhood. The aim of this study was to assess the combined dia...

Right ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease

Introduction:  In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...

Background Total correction of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) anomaly in early childhood has been practiced in many centers with good results, but in some of patients after few years sever Pulmonary valve insufficiency occurred. Materials and Methods At a cross- sectional study from January 2015 to January 2016, 10 patients who had history of primary repair of TOF with free pulmonary insufficiency (...

Correlation of fragmented QRS with right ventricular indexes and fibrosis in patients with repaired tetralogy of fallot, by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

Background Although surgery have improved the prognosis for patients who repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF); late ventricular dysfunction, scar and fibrosis remains a problem which weakens the prognosis. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) also shows this scar tissue and fibrosis. In these patients decreasing in the right ventricular (RV) ejection fraction ...

Focal Atrial Tachycardia in a Patient With Surgically Corrected Tetralogy of Fallot

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a cyanotic congenital heart disease which, without corrective surgery, has a poor prognosis. These patients have an increased incidence of arrhythmias both supraventricular and ventricular post surgical correction. The supraventricular arrhythmias are usually related to the scar tissue at the surgical repair site. We present a case of a young male patient status pos...
