Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease. Survival after the age of 12 years without corrective surgery is rare. We present the case of a 25 year-old man with uncorrected tetralogy of Fallot. Possible reasons for the longetivity in this patient are left ventricular hypertrophy and systemic to pulmonary shunting through internal mammary arteries.
摘要
法洛四联症是最常见的青紫型先天性心脏病。12岁后未经矫正手术而存活的情况很罕见。我们报告一例25岁未经矫正的法洛四联症男性患者。该患者寿命延长的可能原因是左心室肥厚以及通过胸廓内动脉的体肺分流。
