Rare combination in an infant patient: trisomy 7p and tetralogy of fallot

Abstract

Abstract This case report presents an infant patient with the association of trisomy 7p and tetralogy of fallot (TEF). Patients diagnosed with trisomy 7p should certainly be scheduled for an echocardiographic exam and be scanned for any CHDs that may accompany it. The CHDs that most frequently accompany this syndrome include atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, and patent ductus arteriosis. Yet, it should be known that TEF may also be present, albeit rarely.
