Surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot with complete atrioventricular canal.

Abstract
Total repair of tetralogy of Fallot and complete atrioventricular canal remains a surgical challenge; however, good results can be obtained if the lesions are repaired properly at operation. Our technique involves a combined right atrial and right ventricular approach with closure of the ventricular septal defect through the ventriculotomy, double-patch closure of the septal defects without dividing the bridging atrioventricular leaflets, and functional repair of the newly constructed mitral valve.
