Abstract
We report the case of a 4-year-old girl who had quadricuspid aortic valve regurgitation with tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary atresia. This combination is very uncommon. Aortic valve replacement was performed successfully due to aortic regurgitation which had progressed one year after the total repair. The dilated aortic annulus plus quadricuspid aortic valve may result in progressive aortic regurgitation for a short period.Entities:
