    Author: Kiziltan HT, Topcu S, Ozbarlas N, Kayaselcuk F.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2001 Dec; 72(6):2124-5. PubMed ID: 11789811.
    Abstract:
    Tetralogy of Fallot associated with ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic valve regurgitation is unusual. This combination necessitates a change in operative strategy during complete tetralogy repair. We present a 43-year-old woman who successfully underwent composite graft replacement of the ascending aorta and aortic valve during primary complete tetralogy repair. Histologic examination of the aorta revealed medial degeneration.
