Patient's question:
My sister's baby is now 5 years old. In these days, the baby often cries and screams. The family is worried and takes the baby to a hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it's Tetralogy of Fallot. What is Tetralogy of Fallot?Doctor's answer:
Hello friend, the symptoms of Tetralogy of Fallot currently show that the basic pathology of the condition is ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, aortic overriding, and right ventricular hypertrophy. Tetralogy of Fallot ranks first among cyanotic heart defects in children, and the prognosis is mainly determined by the severity of pulmonary stenosis and the collateral circulation. Severe ischemia can easily trigger the current symptoms, which tend to recur. You can consult a local hospital for advice.
