    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2000 Dec; 70(6):2140-2. PubMed ID: 11156136.
    Abstract:
    An infected Dacron ventricular septal defect (VSD) patch was removed 15 years after repair of tetralogy of Fallot. Cardiopulmonary bypass was not utilized, and no significant hemorrhage was encountered. The patient recovered uneventfully and continues to do well 7 years after surgery without infection or residual VSD.
