Left Ventricular Mechanics in Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot with and without Pulmonary Valve Replacement: Analysis by Three-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography

BACKGROUND: Altered septal curvature and left ventricular (LV) geometry secondary to right ventricular (RV) dilation render two-dimensional assessment of LV mechanics difficult in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) patients. The novel three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography enables...
