Report on two children, one 11 year-male and another one year-six-month-female with tetralogy of Fallot associated with anomalous origin of coronary artery crossing the right ventricle outlet tract.

Patients had an uneventful post-operative period and were discharged asymptomatic. It is more an option on correction of tetralogy of fallot with anomalous coronary artery.
