    Abstract We report the case of a 79‐y‐old male with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) who underwent Brock's procedure in his twenties and has survived event‐free. Brock's procedure, which entailed infundibular resection and pulmonary valvotomy, has been associated with complications including the need for re‐operation, pulmonary regurgitation, and biventricular failure.

    Background Pulmonary regurgitation is a common finding in patients after correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Right ventricular impairment and even ventricular arrhythmia have been ascribed to pulmonary valve insufficiency (PI), which is therefore an important issue in follow-up examinations.
