Popis: OBJECTIVES We compared the clinical outcomes between tricuspid valve detachment (TVD) and non-TVD for ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure in infants METHODS From January 2004 to April 2020, 462 infants RESULTS The median age and body weight at operation were 1.9 months [interquartile range(IQR), 1.4–2.5] and 4.2 kg (IQR, 3.7–4.6). The median follow-up duration was 83.4 months (IQR, 43.5–130.4). After matching, 44 pairs were extracted from each group. There were no significant differences in all-cause mortality (P = 0.176), reoperation (P = 0.172), postoperative morbidities, including residual VSD, aortic regurgitation, atrioventricular block and significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) (P = 0.346) between group D and group N. However, group D showed significantly less TR progression during follow-up (P = 0.019). CONCLUSIONS In infants
