Complications during postoperative hospital stay
| Complication (n) | Patient group | Days since surgery |
| Postoperative resuscitation (1) | ToF repair | 0 |
| Second pump run for TAP placement (1) | ToF repair | 0 |
| Delirium and convulsion (1) | ToF repair | 1 |
| Cardiac tamponade (1) | ToF repair | 2 |
| Chylothorax (3) | ToF repair | 5, 6, 10 |
| Infection or fever (9) | 7 ToF repair/2 PVR | 2 (2–5) |
| Arrhythmia (9) | 8 ToF repair/1 PVR | 0 (0–1) |
One patient required a second pump run to create a TAP because of a narrow right ventricular outflow tract following the initial repair. The most common arrhythmia was junctional ectopic tachycardia.
PVR, pulmonary valve replacement; TAP, transannular patch; ToF, tetralogy of Fallot.
