Management of post-operative ventilator dependency in an operated case of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve: a team approach involving cardiac surgeon, cardiologist, intensivist, and radiologist
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 May 2022
Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve syndrome is commonly associated with trachea-bronchial anomalies, possibly due to airway compression caused by massively dilated pulmonary arteries secondary to severe pulmonary regurgitation. This airway obstruction may persist post-operatively also. We report a case of an infant who required a series of management strategies including bronchial stenting to manage his obstructive symptoms.
