Although accumulating evidence indicates the role of circulating biomarkers of collagen metabolism in left ventricular fibrosis, rTOF data are lacking. This study examined the expression profile and clinical relevance of circulating biomarkers of collagen type I metabolism in rTOF patients.enCardiac fibrosis; Collagen; Magnetic resonance imaging; Tetralogy of Fallot[SDGs]SDG3Circulating biomarkers of collagen type I metabolism mark the right ventricular fibrosis and adverse markers of clinical outcome in adults with repaired tetralogy of Fallotjournal article10.1016/j.ijcard.2012.08.059229993382-s2.0-84883745244WOS:000324478400104
