Brief Summary

This study aims to assessing right ventricular function early after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot and identifying the risk factors associated with development of RV dysfunction.

Detailed Description

The shape of the RV is dramatically modified by surgical repair of CHD, with infundibular bulging and apical dilation and deformation, leading to a large range of RV shapes(1,2). Moreover, pericardial...
