Patients with Tetralogy of Fallot have various degrees and levels of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. They undergo surgical removal of the obstructing structures, which includes the pulmonary valve. The repair of the outflow tract is done utilizing a transannular patch. This approach, which is considered the standard of care, results in free pulmonary insufficiency, which may become severe and lead to right heart overloading and subsequent dilatation and dysfunction. This chronic overloading results in progressive tricuspid insufficiency and a suspected decline in effective pulmonary blood flow, cardiac output and right ventricle functional capabilities. Many patients develop progressive exercise intolerance, arrhythmias and severe cardiomegaly leading to dilated cardiomyopathy. The progressive decline in patient clinical status results in recommendations of pulmonary valve replacement to interrupt further dysfunction of the ventricles. Clinical improvement is generally seen among the patients and cardiac function is measurably improved in many cases, however the timing of surgery remains undefined and its impact on function improvement and recovery post -valve replacement is under serious debate and continuous discussion.
