Résumé

An adult with unrepaired tetralogy of Fallot presented with frequent tet spells. Her course was complicated by severe cyanotic spells and tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome that limited beta blocker use to stabilize her spells. She markedly improved after disopyramide initiation and underwent successful tetralogy of Fallot repair with excellent functional outcome.
