Author ProfileAbstract
Here we report a case of a previously unoperated 35-year-old male TOF
patient. He was admitted due to dyspnea, initial physical examination
demonstrated cyanosis and heart murmurs. Echocardiography suggested
secundum atrial septal defect, perimembranous ventricular septal defect
and mild-severe aortic regurgitation. Computed tomography angiography
indicated aortic root dilation and suspicious right coronary artery
aneurysm. Concurrent repair of TOF and VSARR was performed successfully
and the patient had a satisfactory recovery.
