Untreated atrial septal defect after intracardiac repair for tetralogy of Fallot

Tetralogy of Fallot was repaired previously in a preschooler through right ventriculotomy, providing excellent exposure for ventricular septal defect closure and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction relief. Herein, we describe the preschooler as a 50-year-old man with untreated atrial septal defect found at pulmonary valve replacement in the remote period after tetralogy of Fallot repair. It was inferred intraoperatively that the previous tetralogy of Fallot was repaired only through right ventriculotomy, and atrial septal defect closure was performed together with pulmonary valve replacement.
