Abstract

Objectives We sought to analyze risk factors for long-term survival (up to 36 years) after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).Background Survival after repair is excellent, but data >20 years are rare.Methods From 1958 to 1977, 658 patients underwent correction of TOF at our institution and were analyzed for survival. Of this patient group (age 12.2 +/- 8.6 years [mean +/- SD], range 2 to 67), 39.7% had a previous palliation. Operative (n = 139) and 1-year (n = 29) deaths were excluded for long-term calculations, resulting in a study group of 490 patients.Results Actuarial 10-, 20-, 30- and 36-year survival rates were 97%, 94%, 89% and 85%, respectively. Mortality increased 25 years postoperatively from 0.24%/year to 0.94%/year (p = 0.003). The most common cause of death was sudden death (n = 13), followed by congestive heart failure (n = 6). Multivariate correlates of impaired long-term survival were date of operation (before 1970, p = 0.0104), preoperative polycythemia (p = 0.0487) and use of a right ventricular (RV) outflow patch (p = 0.0079). Postoperative systolic RV/left ventricular pressure ratio and age showed no influence. Patients without preoperative polycythemia and an RV outflow patch (n = 164) had a 36-year actuarial survival rate of 96% and normal life expectancy.Conclusions Cyanosis, operative experience of the surgeon and an RV outflow tract patch influence long-term outcome after repair of TOF in older children. Early repair by experienced surgeons to avoid polycythemia and excessive RV hypertrophy is supported by this study. However, mortality risk increases 25 years postoperatively, and thus heart monitoring should be intensified.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
