The results of a follow-up of 35 patients (including 18 children and adolescents) for periods of 6 months to 11 years after radical correction of Ebstein's anomaly are analysed. The results were good in 25 patients, satisfactory--in 6 and poor--in one patient; 3 patients died. The result was poor in one of the patients because the thin walled arterialized part of the right ventricle was not plicated. Death in the remote period was caused by disorders of the cardiac rhythm (atrioventricular block--Morgagni-Adams-Stokes syndrome), "prosthetic" endocarditis, and influenzal pneumonia. Complications of the remote period are analysed and the measures for their prevention and treatment substantiated.
