Fig 1 Kaplan-Meier estimate of survival after repair of truncus arteriosus type A1, A2, and A3 (without interruption of the aortic arch; n = 73) and of truncus type A4 (with interrupted aortic arch; n = 10). The numbers indicate patients at risk at the time of estimate. Vertical bars represent standard error of the mean (SEM). The difference in survival between the two groups is highly significant: p less than 0.0001 (log-rank test).
