Abstract: Definitive repair of TOF patients with abnormal coronary arteries can be performed in early childhood, but care should be taken to leave at least 1 cm of myocardium between the sutureline and the abnormal coronary artery. Detailed evaluation of the patients preoperatively is mandatory to identify the strategy and timing of the operation.

“…In most cases an LAD originating from the RCA or right sinus of Valsalva was the artery crossing the RVOT. Solitary coronary arteries from either the right or left sinus of Valsalva and anomalous LCx' have also been described crossing the RVOT [4,[13][14][15][16]18,24,31,32]. Branches of a solitary coronary artery can take multiple courses after take-off as shown by Dabizzi et al [16].…”

“…Numerous surgical techniques have been described for patients with ToF and ACA to relieve RVOT obstruction and to avoid CA injury: infundibulotomy with CA ligation, RV-to-PA connection with a prosthetic conduit, the transatrial-transpulmonary approach, main PA translocation, mobilization of the ACA to slide the patch underneath or even ACA translocation [1,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. There is no consensus on the ideal surgical management of this subtype of ToF.…”

“…Some authors of case reports or of studies with larger cohorts have also reported their experience with the surgical management of ToF and associated ACA [1,8,15,17]. Although the early mortality rate was reported to be 8-15% before the 1990s, it has clearly dropped below 10% during the last 20 years and now ranges between 0% and 6% [1,8,[10][11][12][13][14]17].…”

“…Patch reconstruction for tissue deficiencies due to congenital diseases is a common problem in cardiovascular surgery [1,2]. Besides autologous pericardium, which is often unavailable due to previous operations, implants used are made of synthetic materials such as Dacron (based on Polyethylenterephtalate) or Gore-Tex (based on polytetrafluoroethylene) and biological materials like glutaraldehyde-fixed bovine pericardium [3,4].…”
