Tetralogy of Fallot Explained | Fetal Cardiology by Dr. Diana | KidsHeart Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain

In this educational video, Dr. Diana Bernal Quintero discusses Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and its variants—one of the most common congenital heart defects diagnosed during pregnancy. The presentation explains the four key features of TOF, including ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary obstruction, along with its associations with genetic syndromes like Trisomy 21 and DiGeorge syndrome. Dr. Diana highlights how fetal echocardiography detects signs such as an overriding aorta, a narrowed pulmonary artery, and reversal of ductal flow. The discussion also covers delivery planning, surgical treatment options after birth, and long-term follow-up for affected children. Special attention is given to severe variants such as pulmonary atresia with VSD and absent pulmonary valve syndrome. This session is part of the Fetal Cardiology Symposium hosted by KidsHeart Medical Center, providing specialized fetal cardiology care across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Al Ain.
