[Sudden transformation of pulmonary stenosis to trilogy of Fallot in a 65 year old patient].

The authors report the case of a 64 year old woman with typical valvular pulmonary stenosis in whom spontaneous and sudden reopening of the foramen ovale resulted in cyanosis. Transthoracic echocardiography with injection of contrast provides a complete diagnosis: valvular pulmonary stenosis with a mean pressure gradient of 83 mmHg and massive right-to-left interatrial shunt. The malformation was treated by interventional catheterisation in a two-stage procedure: pulmonary valvuloplasty followed by closure of the foramen ovale because of the persistence of a right-to-left interatrial shunt. The functional improvement was followed by the appearance of effort angina. Coronary angiography showed single vessel disease of the left anterior descending artery treated by stenting. The long-term outcome was satisfactory.
