Pulmonary artery growth after tetralogy of Fallot surgery
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the pulmonary arteries (the blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to the lungs) develop in children who had surgery for tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition present at birth. It aims to learn more about normal growth patterns, which could help doctors better care for other children with similar heart problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You had heart surgery for tetralogy of Fallot at Strasbourg or Bordeaux University Hospitals between 2010 and 2024.
- You (or your parents/guardians) allow your medical data to be used for research.
- You did not have a specific type of tetralogy of Fallot called VDDI.
- You had a specific heart condition that includes subvalvular obstruction and muscular resection (your doctor can explain this).

This trial looks at newborns with Tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition present at birth. It aims to study the best way to treat these babies in the first month of life.
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can improve breathing function in adults with Tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition you were born with, after you've had corrective surgery. It may help you breathe better and feel stronger.
This study is testing a new computer method to better find the exact spot in the heart that causes abnormal heart rhythms in people who had surgery for tetralogy of Fallot as children. By participating during your already planned heart test, you can help improve treatment options for others with your condition.
This trial tests a coordinated treatment plan for newborns with critical congenital heart disease, starting before birth and continuing after delivery. It aims to improve outcomes for babies who need two-ventricle repair surgery.
This study looks at tiny blood vessels in children with specific heart defects during surgery. It may help doctors better understand circulation and improve care.
This study looks at how the heart makes new muscle cells in babies under 1 year old who need heart surgery. Tissue that is normally removed during surgery will be studied to learn more about heart repair.
