Abstract

Reconstruction of RVOT in patients with a congenital heart defect in various age groups still remains a controversial issue in valve disease surgery. Early identification of RVOT dysfunction, proper timing, and choosing an appropriate method of reconstruction all have an essential effect on postoperative outcomes and long-term survival of the valve replacement used.

There are a number of options for RVOT reconstruction. The use of each prosthesis is associated with the development of various complications.
