OBJECTIVES: @entity299 are usually corrected in the neonatal period or in early infancy. Corrective surgery may not always be definitive, especially in complex @entity600 . Long-term morbidity is influenced by reoperations and their risk. METHODS: This study analyzes our single-center experience over more than 20 years in a selected group of @entity1 . Data were gathered, with special focus on causes and incidence for reoperations, respectively. RESULTS: Freedom from reoperation after 5, 10, and 15 years for each @entity299 was determined. The numbers describe in the following order @entity1 years (y), number of @entity1 (n), and freedom from reoperation at follow-up interval (%), respectively: @entity118 (15,864y, n=1198, 99+/-0/99+/-0/99+/-0), partial @entity474 (2506y, n=234, 95+/-2/93+/-2/93+/-2), @entity1700 (742y, n=141, 93+/-1/91+/-0/91+/-0), complete @entity474 (1715y, n=377, 81+/-3/76+/-3/72+/-4), tetralogy of Fallot <1 year (1503y, n=197, 94+/-4/85+/-1/74+/-3), transposition of great arteries (1459y, n=375, 88+/-2/83+/-4/73+/-7), interrupted aortic arch (IAA) (481y, n=98, 63+/-6/52+/-7/45+/-8), common arterial trunk (CAT) (599y, n=109, 64+/-6/24+/-6/11+/-5). CONCLUSIONS: In most @entity600 surgical correction is definitive and the rate of reoperations is low. In @entity154 , such as CAT and IAA, reoperations at long-term are more common. Analysis of such results and recognition of a sometimes inevitable operative morbidity helps to predict long-term outcome and influences the follow-up.
