DOES RIGHT VENTRICULAR DILATION AFTER PULMONARY VALVE REPLACEMENT PREDICT ADVERSE CLINICAL OUTCOMES IN PATIENTS WITH REPAIRED TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

The rationale for timing of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) in patients with repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) has focused on pre-PVR threshold values of right ventricular end-diastolic volume indexed to body surface area (RVEDVi) that lead to normalization of RV size after valve implantation.
