Surgical Treatment of Tetralogy of Fallot and Sequelae

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Transcript of video: Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the commonest cyanotic congenital heart diseases. One is ventricular septal defect, second is overriding aorta, third is pulmonary stenosis, usually right ventricular outflow tract stenosis and associated right ventricular hypertrophy. Right to left shunt is also visible.

Evaluation of JVP

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

The Y descent is shallow in tricuspid stenosis, and absent in cardiac tamponade. Right atrial hypertrophy as in tricuspid stenosis, pulmonary stenosis and pulmonary hypertension. So a prominent A wave in a complex congenital heart disease situation would indicate that interventricular septum is intact.

Basics of Echocardiography

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

This becomes more difficult in complex congenital heart diseases where the cardiac chamber positions and size may vary. Planimetry of mitral valve area can be obtained in parasternal short axis view in case of mitral stenosis. Parasternal views are often obtained first, followed by apical, subcostal, and suprasternal.
