Abstract
Our results showed functional recovery of the right ventricle after reoperation, with RVDI recovering to almost normal values in children. No significant regurgitation of the secondarily reconstructed pulmonary valve was observed during the 4-year follow-up period. Secondary repair for pulmonary valve incompetence after RVOT procedures might be a valuable alternative to conduit replacement.
