Abstract
- The VSD in TOF is usually large and unrestrictive with an equal to or greater than that of the aortic annulus. Typically shunting through the VSD is bidirectional or right-to-left component. Restrictive VSD in TOF caused by ingrowing fibrotic tissue is very rare. We report a case of restrictive VSD and LVOTO in TOF caused by ingrowing fibrotic tissue with the review of literature.
