Unifocalization and pulmonary artery reconstruction in patients with tetralogy of Fallot and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries who underwent surgery before referral.
The study objective was to characterize and analyze outcomes in patients with tetralogy of Fallot and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries who had undergone surgery elsewhere before referral (prereferral surgery). ⋯ Our comprehensive management strategy for tetralogy of Fallot and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries can be applied with excellent procedural results in both unoperated patients and those who have undergone multiple and varied procedures elsewhere.
