Congenital extracardiac shunts with tetralogy of Fallot.
Congenital extracardiac shunts in tetralogy of Fallot may significantly alter the history and clinical findings and also have significant management implications. An unusual variant of severe tetralogy of Fallot in a 54-year-old man enabled long survival with minimal symptoms. The patient had pulmonary valvular and infundibular stenosis, a large ventricular septal defect, an overriding aorta, and large volume systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunting from his right internal mammary and accessory internal mammary arteries to his right pulmonary artery.
