Ascending aorta in tetralogy of Fallot: Beyond echocardiographic dimensions

Late after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair some patients exhibit aortic dilatation and stiffness. Noninvasive assessment of aortic stiffness could contribute to understand this aortopathy and may be important in risk stratification for major aortic event.We included prospectively 82 adults after TOF repair and 41 age- and sex-matched normal controls.
