Summary

We present a case of atrioventricular septal defect associated with tetralogy of Fallot which was diagnosed by cross-sectional echocardiography and angiography. The diagnosis was confirmed at necropsy. This case is unusual for the absence of Down's syndrome. We discuss the role of clinical, echocardiographic, hemodynamic and angiographic studies.
