The Contribution of Gene Mutations to the Pathogenesisof Tetralogy of Fallot

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is considered as an important and developing area in the medical community. Since these patients can reach maturity and have children, the role of genetic determinants in increasing risk of CHD is extremely evident among children of these patients. Because genetic stud...
