Proximal Aortic Dilatation and Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Patients with Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: Is There a Relationship? A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Proximal Aortic Dilatation and Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Patients with Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: Is There a Relationship? A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Aortopathy is a known complication whose incidence is growing within the population of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) patients. Its pathology and relationship with other comorbidities remain unclear. This study was designed to determine the prevalence and predictors of proximal aortic dilatation after TO...
