• RV volume and strain were significantly associated with both primary events and all adverse events, whereas LV volume and strain were associated with primary events. • Ventricular myocardial deformation is a strong predictor of adverse outcomes of patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot, providing increased prognostic information and significantly improved risk stratification over ventricular size.
