Arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death remain common in repaired tetralogy of Fallot and
affect even those with excellent anatomic repairs. Atrial arrhythmia often has mechanisms …

The number of rTOF patients who survive into adulthood is steadily rising, with currently
more than 90% reaching the third decade of life. However, rTOF patients are not cured, but …

Interventions in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) focus on surgical and
percutaneous interventions in light of rapidly evolving ACHD clinical practice. To bring rigour …

Background: Adults with repaired tetralogy of Fallot die prematurely from ventricular
tachycardia (VT) and sudden cardiac death. Inducible VT predicts mortality. Ventricular scar …

Purpose To compare left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) 3.0-T cardiac magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging T1 values in Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) and hypertrophic …

Background Cardiac involvement is common and is the leading cause of mortality in Fabry
disease (FD). We explored the association between cardiovascular magnetic resonance …

Objective The relationship between right ventricular (RV) fibrosis and right heart reverse
remodelling following pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) has not been well studied in …

Abstract Background After tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair, pulmonary regurgitation and right
ventricular function must be monitored. Conventional (2D) cardiac magnetic resonance …

Myocardial fibrosis resulting from the excessive deposition of collagen fibers through the
myocardium is a common histopathologic finding in a wide range of cardiovascular …

The risk of premature death in adult patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rtoF) is real and
not inconsiderable. From the 3 rd decade of life, the incidence of malignant ventricular …
