Structural Abnormalities Functional Abnormalities
Inherent to TOF repair RV volume overload
 Partial or complete removal of pulmonary valve tissue  Pulmonary regurgitation
 Infundibulotomy scar  Tricuspid regurgitation
 Resection of RV/infundibular muscle bundles  Left-to-right shunt
 Right atriotomy scar   Ventricular septal defect
 VSD patch   Atrial septal defect
Residual or recurrent lesions   Aorto-pulmonary collaterals
 RV outflow tract obstruction RV pressure overload
 Main or branch pulmonary artery stenosis  RV outflow or pulmonary artery stenosis
 Ventricular septal defect  Pulmonary vascular disease
