Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot was repaired by a transatrial-transpulmonary approach in 91 of 250 patients treated surgically [including redo operations] between April 1986 and December 1989.

PA index was measured pre-operatively since 1987 to estimate pulmonary artery size and safe total correction[mean 289
