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...

Surgical repair of the tetralogy of Fallot is one of the most successful operations in the treatment of congenital heart diseases. We report the case of a 65-year-old man who had an aortic valve replacement at the time of complete repair of the tetralogy of Fallot at the age of forty-three. He subsequently had progressive aortic root and ascending aorta dilation to 9 cm. The aortic root and asc...

Repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) has been performed since 19541 and adult survival is expected.2 Longterm problems include arrhythmias, both supraventricular and ventricular, and residual hemodynamic problems, which are generally well tolerated for many years; these include residual ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis but, most commonly, pulmonary regurgitation, with its consequ...
متن کاملProgressive aortic root dilatation in adults late after repair of tetralogy of Fallot.
BACKGROUND Aortic valve or aortic root (AoRo) replacement is occasionally required because of AoRo dilatation and aortic regurgitation (AR) in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We evaluated AoRo size and possible factors associated with its dynamic nature in adults with repaired TOF. METHODS AND RESULTS Of 216 patients with TOF repair who underwent echocardiography in 1997, we identified 32...
