This week we delve into the world of ACHD when we review a recent important work from the multicenter INDICATOR study group assessing the impact on overall outcomes in TOF patients who have their pulmonary valve replaced. Are survival rates improved by replacement of the pulmonary valve in the TOF patient? What about the effect on ventricular tachycardia? What are the proposed mechanisms by which PVR can positively affect this critical outcomes? Are there differences between transcatheter PVR and surgical in this regard? Is there an RV volume that is the 'sweet spot' for PVR? These are amongst the many questions posed to Professor of Pediatrics and Medicine at Harvard University, Dr. Anne Marie Valente.
