One-stage correction of tetralogy of Fallot associated with anomalous origin of the left pulmonary artery from the aorta and aortopulmonary window.

Abstract

We report a rare case of tetralogy of Fallot associated with anomalous origin of the left pulmonary artery from the aorta and aortopulmonary window. Successful one-stage total correction was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass, including implantation of the left pulmonary artery, repair of aortopulmonary window, and correction of tetralogy of Fallot. The patient experienced an uneventful postoperative course and was asymptomatic at one-year follow-up.
