Patients with tetralogy of Fallot/pulmonary atresia often have bilateral pulmonary artery lesions, including diminutive central and peripheral vessels, major aortopulmonary collaterals, and distortion from previous operations. Staged procedures through lateral thoracotomies and median sternotomies have traditionally been used for repair.

Abstract

Patients with tetralogy of Fallot/pulmonary atresia often have bilateral pulmonary artery lesions, including diminutive central and peripheral vessels, major aortopulmonary collaterals, and distortion from previous operations. Staged procedures through lateral thoracotomies and median sternotomies have traditionally been used for repair.
