Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. The pathological anatomy changes include ventricular septal defect, right ventricular outflow tract stenosis, aortic stradding and right ventricular hypertrophy. At present, the diagnostic criteria and treatment strategies of this disease are basically unified. However, there are controversies about the timing and method of surgical treatment. Based on the evidence-based information provided in the literature and the opinions of domestic experts of China, we formulate a consensus of Chinese experts to further standardize the surgical treatment of tetralogy of Fallot.
