Retroaortic brachiocephalic vein with tetralogy of Fallot
and pulmonary stenosis/pulmonary atresia
The great majority of the reported cases found in association with
tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary stenosis or pulmonary atresia have
required extensive pulmonary arterioplasty, and insertion of a
transannular patch. Systemic-to-pulmonary artery anastomosis using a
polytetrafluoroethylene graft has also been performed in case of
borderline pulmonary arteries.2,5,6,11,14,22,23,49-52
