Tetralogy Of Fallot ( TOF )


This was a review scan of the same patient already posted here on 31 March  2013 – Left Atrial Isomerism . The review scan threw up some surprises . I was left wondering whether I should have got it the earlier time itself .

The first picture would confirm the left atrial isomerism – aorta and azygos vein seen side by side .

RUKMANI_26

the four chamber view looked normal.

RUKMANI_6

the LV Outflow tract view was more revealing . The IVS  is seen straddling the aorta .

RUKMANI_7

the next few pictures show the straddling of the aorta by the inter ventricular septum.

RUKMANI_11

the three vessel view shows a narrow pulmonary artery compared to the aorta with flow reversal

RUKMANI_8

RUKMANI_9

the A V Septal defect with the colour flow.

RUKMANI_10

the diagnosis would be LEFT ATRIAL ISOMERISM WITH TETRALOGY OF F ALLOT

The irregular rhythm was not made out now.

Apart from this the fetus has symmetrical IUGR  and oligohydramnios

This brings out the importance of reviewing the patient at intervals.

  1. Great to see this via this media. The cine loop is good but maybe a littlle short. sometimes large clips are not usable. Sharing information is wonderful now.
