The eponym “tetralogy of Fallot” did not become a common noun in pediatric cardiology vocabulary for several decades after
étienne-Louis Arthur Fallot’s report in a French medical journal. There were others before Fallot who described the abnormal
cardiac anatomical findings seen in tetralogy of Fallot, but his name became fixed to the condition’s eponym primarily through
Maude Abbott popularizing the term. 相似文献

We present a large single-center series (>2200 cases) operated for Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We analyzed the incidence of
associated unusual and uncommonly described cardiac lesions and their diagnostic and therapeutic implications in TOF patients.
This retrospective study was conducted by reviewing records of patients operated for TOF at a large tertiary care pediatric
cardiac centre. From 2002 to 2008, a total of 2235 cases of TOF were evaluated with echocardiography, cardiac catheterization,
and/or cardiac computed tomography followed by cardiac surgery. Known and well-described associations were excluded from the
study. Unusual associations were tabulated. Several unusual associations having an incidence >0.1% were detected. These included
subaortic membrane (1%), pulmonary venous abnormalities (0.5%), small left ventricle (0.5%), interrupted inferior vena cava
(0.5%), mitral valve abnormalities (0.4%), hemitruncus (0.4%), tricuspid valve abnormalities (0.4%), biventricular dysfunction
(0.3%), retroaortic innominate vein (0.3%), bicuspid aortic valve (0.2%), and pericardial effusion (0.2%). This series describes
unusual, not previously routinely reported cardiac lesions associated with TOF that may affect management and should be sought
on preoperative evaluation. We demonstrate that more unusual associations do exist in not infrequent numbers, i.e., a TET is not just a TET. 相似文献

Killian–Pallister syndrome is a rare dysmorphic condition characterized by specific clinical manifestations and tetrasomy
12p. Although the association of this condition with congenital heart disease has been previously documented, no cases have
been reported in association with Fallot's tetralogy. We report one such case. 相似文献

Early Postoperative Results After Total Correction of Tetralogy of Fallot in Older Patients: Is Primary Repair Always Justified? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The objective of this study was to compare early postoperative results in primary vs 2-stage repair of tetralogy of Fallot
in patients operated on after 5 years of age. Eighty-four patients with tetralogy of Fallot were studied, who were more than
5 years of age and who were repaired in one center by one surgeon. Hospital death and ratio of right-to-left ventricle pressure
after correction were compared between the primary and the 2-stage groups as early outcome indices. Overall hospital mortality
was 11.9% (10/88). There were 9 (18.4%) hospital deaths in the primary and 1 (2.9%) in the 2-stage group. Mortality was significantly
higher in the primary group (p= 0.04 using the 2-tailed Fisher's exact test; relative risk = 6.43; 95% CI = 0.85–48.46). The mean ± standard deviation (SD)
for RV/LV ratio was 0.51 ± 0.13. It was 0.61 ± 0.11 in patients who died and 0.49 ± 0.12 in patients who lived (p= 0.01 using the 2-tailed t-test). RV/LV ratio was not significantly different between either group. In the 2-stage group, there was a small inverse
correlation between the time interval and the RV/LV ratio (correlation coefficient =−0.235). The TAP group had a statistically
significant lower time interval between shunt and total correction than the RVOT-P group (p= 0.02 using 2-tailed t-test). Older patients generally do better on 2-stage repair, because of their age. A long period of low pulmonary blood flow
has induced unbalanced ventricles and exaggerated RVOTO for these patients because of muscle hypertrophy. In such patients,
shunting will prepare the left ventricle for accepting the extra blood volume that will reach the left ventricle after total
correction. 相似文献

A first case of an unusual aortopulmonary window with tetralogy of Fallot associated with pulmonary atresia is presented.
The aortopulmonary window was at the aortic sinus of Valsalva. The left aortic leaflet prevented pulmonary hypertension by
occluding the window in systole. 相似文献

We performed a retrospective echocardiographic study in tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) or pulmonay atresia with ventricular septal
defect (PA&VSD) to evaluate the effects of Blalock–Taussig shunt on branch pulmonary artery growth. There were 35 patients
with TOF and 11 with PA&VSD. We measured the right and left pulmonary artery area index and also the combined pulmonary artery
area index, both before and after shunt operation. The mean ± SD of these three variables before the shunt operation in the
TOF group were 63.5 ± 22.5, 57.8 ± 24.9, and 121.4 ± 42.8 mm2/m2; after shunt operation they were 98.5 ± 33.6, 85.9 ± 31.9, and 184.0 ± 59.8 mm2/m2, respectively (p values <0.0001, <0.0002, and <0.0001, respectively). In the PA&VSD group the comparable values before shunt operation were
66.5 ± 16.0, 55.4 ± 10.6, and 120.9 ± 26.9 mm2/m2 and after shunt operation were 90.5 ± 22.9, 77.2 ± 24.1, and 166.6 ± 44.4 mm2/m2, respectively (p values <0.0006, <0.014, and <0.002, respectively). We also examined the effect of distensibility of pulmonary arteries by
comparing the percentage change in size of the combined pulmonary artery area index in the first 4 months after shunt with
those after this time (p < 0.023). There were no significant differences between left- and right-sided shunts, origin and distal pulmonary artery
growth, and the TOF and PA&VSD groups. 相似文献
