Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Abnormal aortic dimensions and elasticity parameters have been long described for corrected TOF (cTOF) together with left ventricular (LV) rotational abnormalities, but results are conflicting. The present study focuses on investigating LV rotational mechanics in cTOF, and possible correlation of these parameters with aortic elasticity. It was also aimed to be examined whether different surgical strategies have any effect on these results.
