Patient's question:
The child exhibited facial cyanosis right after being born. I am very anxious. This is my first child. After the hospital examination, they informed us that the child has Tetralogy of Fallot. I would like to know, what are the clinical manifestations of Tetralogy of Fallot?Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend, generally, children mainly exhibit cyanosis, difficulty breathing, and the symptoms become more severe during crying. Some severely ill children may experience fainting due to severe hypoxia, accompanied by epilepsy and convulsions. The physical signs of the children show poor development, with a bulge in the chest. Through color Doppler ultrasound and dynamic electrocardiogram, the interventricular septal defect, pulmonary artery hypertension, and right ventricular stenosis can be clearly observed.
