Abstract

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart defect. Survival into adulthood is currently expected following surgical repair, leading to a growing population of adults with repaired TOF. In this literature review, we aim to summarize the current state of knowledge on the quality of life of adults with repaired TOF.
