Overview

Retrospective case series details echocardiographic findings in children with tetralogy of fallot, revealing significant cardiac defects.

Key Points

  • Echocardiography accurately identified cardiac defects in 100% of patients before surgery.
  • Among 23 children studied, 69.6% had a patent ductus arteriosus and 65.2% had ventricular septal defects.
  • The median age was 10.5 months, and 100% displayed right ventricular hypertrophy.
  • Echocardiography showed limitations in assessing pulmonary valve characteristics, needing improved methods.
