Abstract Background: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is one of the most common cyanotic congenital heart diseases. Pulmonary regurgitation is the most common and severe comorbidity after transannular patch (TAP) repair of TOF patients. It has not been confirmed whether a TAP repair with monocusp valve reconstruction would benefit TOF patients in perioperative period compared to those without monocusp valve reconstruction. The purpose of the study is to review and analyze all clinical studies that have compared perioperative outcomes of TOF patients undergoing TAP repair with or without monocusp valve reconstruction and conduct a preferable surgery.Methods: Eligible studies were identified by searching the electronic databases. The primary outcome was perioperative mortality. Secondary outcomes included cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic cross-clamp time, ventilation duration, ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, and perioperative right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) pressure gradient. The meta-analysis and forest plots were drawn using Review Manager 5.3. Statistically significant was considered when p-value ≤ 0.05. Results: Eight studies were included which consisted of 7 retrospective cohort study and 1 randomized controlled trial. The 8 studies formed a pool of 526 TOF patients in total, in which are 300 undergoing TAP repair with monocusp valve reconstruction (monocusp group) compared to 226 undergoing TAP repair without monocusp valve reconstruction (non-monocusp group). It demonstrated significant differences between two groups in perioperative cardiopulmonary bypass time (21.86, 95% CI 16.51-27.21), perioperative aortic cross-clamp time (11.20, 95% CI 1.06 - 21.34), mean length of ICU stay (-1.55, 95% CI -3.90 - -0.81), and the degree of perioperative PR (OR=0.02, 95% CI 0.00 - 0.15).Conclusion: Transannular patch repair with monocusp valve reconstruction seems to have significant advantages on some perioperative outcomes of TOF patients. Large, multicenter, randomized, prospective studies focusing on differences between TAP repair with and without monocusp valve reconstruction are needed.

Background: It is arguable whether presence of transannular patch is itself a risk factor for adverse outcome at total correction(repair) of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).This study intended to compare early outcome of intact pulmonary valve annulus with transannular patching at repair of TOF.Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted from July 2015 to January 2017.40 patients were enrolled in 2 groups- A & B.In group A,14 patients with intact pulmonary valve annulus& in group B, 26 patients with transannular patch. The diameter of pulmonary valve annulus was measured with Hegar dilator and Z value of the measured diameter were calculated from an established published nomogram. Transannular patch was placed if Z value of annular diameter < -3 or post repair operative room right ventricle/left ventricle pressure ratio (P RV/LV)> 0.7.Patients were monitored in the intensive care unit(ICU) and followed up for 3 months following discharge from hospital.Results: Patients of group B were younger and smaller body surface area. There were no significant difference of preoperative variables in terms of peripheral arterial oxygen saturation(SpO2%), haematocrit (%),NYHA functional class, right ventricular hypertrophy, and level & severity of right ventricular out flow tract obstruction. Early out come in terms of duration of ventilation time, inotrope support & ICU stay; post operative morbidity & mortality were more in group B than group A patients. Pulmonary regurgitation & right ventricular dysfunction following transannular patch at repair of TOF plays important role for adverse outcome.Conclusion: Transannular patch is associated with higher morbidity and mortality in total correction of Tetralogy of Fallot.Cardiovasc. j. 2018; 10(2): 194-200

We present a surgical case of native pulmonary valve (PV) restoration in a 16-year-old boy with a previous history of transannular patch repair of tetralogy of Fallot in infancy. The PV was restored by approximation of split anterior commissure in the presence of developed and pliable leaflets well preserved after initial surgery. Postoperative echocardiogram showed a competent valve with peak velocity of 2.8 m/s. At six-week follow-up, the patient remained well, and echocardiogram demonstrated a competent PV with decreased velocity of 2.1 m/s across it. We encourage a mindful preservation of PV leaflets whenever it is possible at time of initial repair to implement this relatively easy operation to restore PV function later in life.

Background: Although valve-sparing repair remains ideal for patients with tetralogy of Fallot, the durability of valve-sparing repair and which patients may have been better served with a transannular patch remain unclear. Methods: Retrospective review was performed of tetralogy of Fallot operations at our institution from January 2008 to December 2018. Standard demographic data were collected, including echocardiographic parameters, operative details, and clinical outcomes. Statistical analysis was performed comparing the transannular patch and valve-sparing repair groups. Results: Sixty-seven patients underwent tetralogy of Fallot repair with a median age of 4.5 (3.2-6.0) months and weight of 5.8 (5.2, 6.7) kg. Seventeen (25%) patients underwent transannular patch repair and 50 (75%) patients underwent valve-sparing repair. There was no difference in age or weight between patients who underwent a transannular patch repair and those who underwent a valve-sparing repair. At last follow-up (median 42 months), there was a trend of a higher peak pulmonary valve/right ventricular outflow tract gradient ( P = .06) in the valve-sparing group, but no difference in the pulmonary valve annulus z-scores. Additionally, the pulmonary valve z-scores in the valve-sparing group decreased from −2.3 ± 1.0 on predischarge echocardiogram of to −1.2 ± 1.6 on last follow-up, with the peak gradient on predischarge 23 (0-37) mm Hg remaining stable on last follow-up at 18 (0-29) mm Hg. There was one reoperation: pulmonary valve replacement six years after a transannular patch. Conclusions: Obtaining a postrepair pulmonary valve z-score of −2 yields satisfactory, stable valve-sparing repair with pulmonary valve growth, acceptable gradients, minimal regurgitation, and high freedom from reintervention during follow-up.
