X-ray of the chest typically shows a boot-shaped heart “靴状心”(see Figure 5), due to right ventricular hypertrophy and the absence of a pulmonary artery shadow above the left side of the heart. An echocardiogram with Doppler mode shows the altered pattern of blood ow. What additional p...

Although the classic boot-shaped heart (coeur en sabot) is the hallmark of the disorder in infants, this shape of the heart may not be seen in adult patients. Echocardiography has the following attributes: Color-flow Doppler echocardiography: Assesses overall cardiac function and the status of th...

Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital cardiac malformation that consists of an interventricular communication, also known as a ventricular septal defect, obstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract, override of the ventricular septum by the aortic r
A UNIQUELY COMPENSATED BOOT-SHAPED HEART: A CASE OF UNREPAIRED TETRALOGY OF FALLOT WITH DELAYED SYMPTOM ONSET IN ADULTHOODdoi:10.1016/j.chest.2020.08.281Suely RomanMichael CastellarinChest
Diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot is suggested by history and clinical examination, supported by chest x-ray and ECG, and established by 2-dimensional echocardiography with color flow and Doppler studies. Chest x-ray shows a boot-shaped heart with a concave main pulmonary artery segment and ...
Preoperatively in the neonatal period, the chest radiograph is mainly used to assess pulmonary vascularity and degree of pulmonary blood flow, while, as time evolves, the cardiac silhouette progresses to the classical “boot-shaped heart” explained by the narrowing of the mediastinum due to hypopla...
Chest X-rayimaging: This image may demonstrate the classic "boot-shaped heart." This occurs because the right ventricle is enlarged. It also may show an abnormal aorta. Echocardiography: This imaging test is key. It will demonstrate the ventricular septal defect or large hole between the left ...
