Definition • Tetralogy of Fallot is cardiac malformation comprising ventricular septal defect (VSD), right ventricular outflow tract obstruction(infundibular stenosis),aorta overriding the intervertricular septum, and right ventricular hypertrophy.
Etiology • The etiology of TOF is heterogeneous and includes both environmental and genetic factors that most likely interact with one another in certain cases. Several environmental teratogens have been shown specifically to increase the risk of developing TOF with PS, including maternal diabetes,retinoic acids, maternal phenylketonuria (PKU), and trimethadione.
Clinical Manifestasion • • • •
Cyanosis Hipercyanotic spell Clubbing finger Murmur
Diagnosis • • • •
Chest radiography Electrocardiogram Echocardiography Cardiac catheterization
Chest radiography
Differential Diagnosis • Ebstein’s malformation • Tricuspid atresia • TGA
Treatment • Medical treatment • Surgical : palliative surgical corrective surgical
Prognosis • Without surgical intervention, around 50% of children with TOF will die within the first few years of life and survival beyond 30 years without surgery is uncommon. With corrective surgery in childhood, survival to discharge from hospital is 95-99%, and almost all children can be expected to survive to adulthood.
