Abstract
Early primary repair for neonates may increase surgical reoperation, whereas transcatheter palliation comes at a cost of increased catheter reintervention. However, overall outcomes between groups, in terms of survival, growth, and hemodynamic parameters, were comparable, suggesting that both strategies are a reasonable option for children with severe tetralogy of Fallot.
