[Tricuspid annuloplasty, pulmonary valve replacement, ventricular septal defect (VSD) patch closure, and right-sided maze procedure 23-years after corrective repair of tetralogy of Fallot].

Postoperative pulmonary valve regurgitation, stenosis of the right ventricular outflow tract, conduit failure, ventricular septal patch leak, secondary tricuspid valve regurgitation, and various arrhythmias are the major complications that develop after surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot in adults. A 27-year-old male with pulmonary regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation, residual ventricular septal defect (VSD), low left ventricular function, and chronic atrial fibrillation underwent tricuspid annuloplasty, pulmonary valve replacement with a stentless aortic valve, VSD patch closure, and right-sided maze procedure, and the postoperative course was uneventful. The cardiothoracic ratio decreased, sinus rhythm was restored, and the patient's complaints were relieved. Reoperation at the optimal time after corrective repair of tetralogy of Fallot in adults may improve the outcome.
