Right ventricular outflow tract reintervention after primary tetralogy of Fallot repair in neonates and young infants

Neonatal TOF repair can be performed with low mortality but frequent RVOT reinterventions. Surgical reintervention is earlier and the rate is higher among patients with TOF/PA undergoing RV-PA conduit repair compared with those undergoing TAP. Although there were no overall differences in RVOT reintervention rate between patients with TOF/PS undergoing VSR and those undergoing TAP, a lower birth weight in the patients undergoing VSR is associated with a higher surgical reintervention rate.
