The anatomic abnormalities observed by cineangiographic axial techniques of
12 patients with tetralogy of Fallot were correlated with anatomic details
noted at necropsy. Right ventricular angiograms made in the right anterior
oblique view best demonstrated the severity and type of infundibular
obstruction and also permitted differentiation of the perimembranous,
infundibular muscular and subarterial types of ventricular septal defects.
The degree of aortic overriding was best displayed in the long-axis view.
Comparison of the intracardiac anatomy of each postmortem specimen with the
respective premortem cineangiogram has provided further clarification of
the angiographic anatomy displayed by these axial techniques.
