ABSTRACT
@#<p style="text-align justify;">Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) in pregnancy is a rare occurrence which poses a high risk for detrimental effects on both mother and fetus. This paper reports a 21-year-old primigravid diagnosed with uncorrected TOF who had a successful caesarean section at 32 weeks of gestation. To address the hemodynamic challenges, the anaesthetic management involved the use of a minimally invasive hemodynamic monitor, controlled mechanical ventilation and a combined technique of intravenous anaesthesia using remifentanil and lumbar epidural anaesthesia using levobupivacaine.</p>
