"One-stop" Hybrid approach for tetralogy of fallot with aortopulmonary collateral arteries in adults

ABSTRACT

We report a 45 year-old Chinese woman with tetralogy of fallot that had two aortopulmonary collateral arteries and tricuspid regurgitation. Collateral circulation was blocked and total correction was successfully performed in our "one-stop" hybrid operation room. The patient was weaned from cardiopulmonary bypass after 97 minutes and was transferred to the intensive care unit for about 36 hours. Without any complications, the patient was discharged home in the following eight days
