Anatomy of Tetralogy of Fallot

open access: yes, 2012
It was Etienne-Louis Arthur Fallot who, in 1888, first described the clinicopathological correlates of the “maladie bleue” [1]. The lesion that he identified was the association of interventricular communication, sub pulmonary stenosis, biventricular origin of the aorta and hypertrophy of the right ventricle.

Tetralogy of Fallot

Cardiology Clinics, 2020
Repaired tetralogy of Fallot is one of the most common conditions managed by adult congenital heart disease providers. Recent comprehensive review articles and book chapters are devoted to this topic. The purpose of this article is to address several common clinical questions encountered in the management of patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot ...

Tetralogy of Fallot

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2015
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease beyond 1 week of age. “Classic” TOF usually presents for surgical repair during the first 3–9 months of life. Surgical repair techniques vary among surgeons and institutions. The optimal timing and approach to complete (vs. staged) surgical repair remain a topic of continued

Tetralogy of fallot

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
The optimal surgical approach and timing for patients with tetralogy of Fallot remain controversial. There are two options in current practice: a two-stage repair (an initial palliative aortopulmonary shunt at an early age followed by complete repair at an older age) or primary complete repair.

Tetralogy of Fallot

Circulation, 1968
Although the natural course of tetralogy of Fallot is not yet clear, the life-span seems to be short except in rare cases of mild pulmonary stenosis or in cases associated with a sizeable systemic-pulmonary anastomosis. Two hundred and nine patients with tetralogy of Fallot underwent operation in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, University of Tokyo.

Tetralogy of Fallot

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1990
Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common malformation of children born with cyanotic heart disease, with an incidence of approximately 10 per cent of congenital heart disease. There can be a wide spectrum as to the severity of the anatomic defects, which include ventricular septal defect, aortic override, right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and ...

The electrocardiogram in tetralogy of fallot

Journal of Electrocardiology, 1972
Summary The ECG in 100 patients with proven isolated tetralogy of Fallot and no surgery was analyzed. 96% had signs of right ventricular hypertrophy. No patient had left ventricular hypertrophy or a QRS axis in the left upper quandrant in the frontal plane.

Tetralogy of Fallot in the adult

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1972
Abstract The anatomic, clinical, roentgenographic, electrocardiographic and hemodynamic findings in 25 adult patients with tetralogy of Fallot not previously operated upon revealed many differences from the classic description of this lesion in children.

Tetralogy of Fallot

World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2013
Management of the cyanotic neonate with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) remains a challenging condition. Outcomes for single-stage repair of ToF have steadily improved over the past 30 years and the best results have been achieved with repair between 3 and 9 months of age. The traditional management of cyanotic neonates and small infants has been palliation

Tetralogy of Fallot

Seminars in Roentgenology, 1985
T ETRALOGY of Fallot is the most common cardiac malformation associated with cyanosis after infancy. Although the first anatomic description was made by Stensen in 1671,’ Fallot* described the entity in a series of papers in 1888. Since the landmark surgical palliative procedure for this condition 40 years ago, there have been unparalleled advances in ...
