An 11-month-old infant, moderately cyanotic, with diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot underwent corrective surgery. At echocardiographic evaluation, a subatretic right ventricular outflow tract without aortopulmonary collateral arteries, confluent pulmonary arteries and normal coronary pattern were evidenced. During operation, an undiagnosed large coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula was disclosed. Because of the large variety of aortopulmonary collateral arteries that can be associated with this pathology, further imaging study is mandatory when oxygen saturation does not match the right ventricular outflow tract obstruction severity.
一名11个月大的中度发绀婴儿,被诊断为法洛四联症,接受了矫正手术。超声心动图评估显示,右心室流出道闭锁不全,无主肺动脉侧支动脉,肺动脉融合,冠状动脉形态正常。手术过程中,发现了一个未被诊断出的大冠状动脉-肺动脉瘘。由于与这种病理情况相关的主肺动脉侧支动脉种类繁多,当氧饱和度与右心室流出道梗阻严重程度不匹配时,必须进行进一步的影像学检查。
