Complete percutaneous repair of Tetralogy of Fallot in adult: a case report.
Article in Journal of cardiothoracic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common congenital cyanotic heart disease and is characterized by an antero-superior deviation of the infundibular septum with a consequent large malaligned ventricular septal defect (VSD) and a pulmonary and sub-pulmonary (infundibular) stenosis. Surgical repair has been the cornerstone of treatment that is electively performed early in their lives between 3 and 6 months of age. With advancements in transcatheter interventions, the complete percutaneous repair of TOF, a complex disease with multiple treatable lesions, is becoming a conceivable possibility. Here, we report the case of total transcatheter correction of an 18-year-old boy with TOF, performed in two stages. The first stage involved addressing the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction with balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty (BPV) and occluding the conal artery using absolute alcohol and a coil. In the second stage, the VSD was closed with a Multifunctional Occluder (MFO) Konar device 14 -12 mm (Lifetech, China). While surgical treatment remains the gold standard for total correction of TOF, the transcatheter approach can also be considered for selected group of patients who are surgically turned-down.
