Abstract:
Pulmonary valve regurgitation is a common complication after radical surgery in children with tetralogy of fallot. Long-term presence of pulmonary valve regurgitation can lead to increased right heart load, and then increase the risk of arrhythmia, right heart failure, movement limitation and even sudden death. This review summarize and analyze the mid- and long-term pulmonary valve regurgitation, right heart function, and reconstruction effect after radical surgery in patients with tetralogy of fallot, in order to clarify the necessity and feasibility of long-term pulmonary valve reconstruction of children with tetralogy of fallot after radical surgery, and to briefly discuss the operation timing and indications.
