Transatrial repair of tetralogy of Fallot delayed beyond the neonatal period is associated with excellent long-term survival and a low rate of reintervention.
d’Udekem et al. (2013) conducted a cohort in Tetralogy of Fallot (n=675). Transatrial repair of tetralogy of Fallot delayed beyond the neonatal period was evaluated on 25 years' survival (95% CI 95-98). Transatrial repair of tetralogy of Fallot delayed beyond the neonatal period resulted in 97% survival and 84.6% freedom from valved conduit implantation at 25 years.
