TL;DR: Weight gain was nearly universal post-transplant with only 4% of patients underweight at 1 year, and in the small number of patients overweight at transplant, graft survival was similar to normal-weight patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Right ventricular infundibulum sparing (RVIS) tetralogy of fallot repair: a review of over 300 patients.
David L.S. Morales,Farhan Zafar,Jeffrey S. Heinle,Elena C. Ocampo,Jeffrey J. Kim,Katherine Relyea,Charles D. Fraser +6 more
TL;DR: Midterm results suggest that RVIS does appear to preserve RV function, and longer term follow-up will be essential in establishing if the RVIS strategy can change the natural history of repaired TOF.
Journal ArticleDOI

David L.S. Morales,Muhammad S. Khan,Joseph W. Turek,Reshma Biniwale,Christo I. Tchervenkov,Michele Rush,Jeffrey P. Jacobs,James S. Tweddell,Marshall L. Jacobs +8 more

Roosevelt Bryant,Raheel Rizwan,Farhan Zafar,Shimul A. Shah,Clifford Chin,James S. Tweddell,David L.S. Morales +6 more
TL;DR: The posttransplant outcome of CHLT, with and without CHD, is comparable, however, there is a trend toward better survival for CHLT for CHD compared with isolated heart transplant forCHD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tetralogy of Fallot repair: the Right Ventricle Infundibulum Sparing (RVIS) strategy.
TL;DR: The RVIS strategy is an attempt based on current knowledge and experience to optimize the time of repair so that Texas Children's Hospital can not only maximize the early operative results but the long-term effects of this approach as these children mature into adolescents and adults.
