Abstract

Optimal treatment for stable repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) patients with pulmonary regurgitation (PR) and related right ventricular (RV) dilatation, including timing of valve implantation, remains uncertain. We sought to study tolerability of the angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitor ramipril and its effects on cardiovascular function in these patients.
