  • Title: [Disorders of cardiac rhythm and conductivity after radical correction of tetralogy of Fallot in young children].
    Author: Degtiareva EA, Il'in VN, Ermolenko ML.
    Journal: Grud Serdechnososudistaia Khir; 1992; (3-4):17-20. PubMed ID: 1384605.
    Abstract:
    Analysis of electrocardiograms in 55 children who underwent operation for Fallot's tetralogy at early age showed that the frequency and severity of postoperative disorders of rhythm and conductivity were determined by the degree of trauma inflicted by the used surgical techniques. Data obtained in the early and late-term postoperative periods confirm the expediency of performing surgical correction of the anomaly as early as possible by means of surgical methods which cause little injury. The results of the study are recommended for use in choosing the surgical tactics, for functional appraisal of the operative results.
