Two different pentalogies in an adult patient: A pentalogy of Cantrell associated with a pentalogy of Fallot

摘要

Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare syndrome characterized by defects involving the abdominal wall, lower sternum, diaphragm, pericardium, as well as congenital cardiac anomalies. Tetralogy of Fallot is a cardiac anomaly consisting of a ventricular septal defect (VSD), dextroposition of the aorta, obstruction to the pulmonary blood flow, and right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy. Addition of atrial septal defect (ASD) to these anomalies is called pentalogy of Fallot (POF).
