Pregnancy outcomes among 31 patients with tetralogy of Fallot, a retrospective study

Abstract

Surgical correction of TOF is associated with improved maternal and perinatal outcome. However, pregnancy in women with uncorrected TOF was still seen and it was observed at a rate of 1.4/10,000 in our medical center during ten year period. The high degree of ventricular dilatation heart, high functional classifications, serious cardiac arrhythmias and pulmonary hypertension appeared to be associated with maternal and neonatal risks.
