Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is characterised by mild to severe congenital cardiac defects and skeletal abnormalities of the upper limb. This syndrome is also referred to as Hand-Heart syndrome. The most common cardiac disorder is an ostium secundum detected an atrial septal defect (ASD), followed by ventricular septal defect (VSD) and ostium primum ASD. We report a case of HOS with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). This association is very rare and is hardly reported in the literature.

Absent pulmonary valve syndrome, commonly linked with tetralogy of Fallot and ventricular septal defect, is a rare congenital condition. It is exceedingly rare to have an isolated absent pulmonary valve with an intact ventricular septum without cardiovascular shunt lesions, such as an atrial/ventricular septal defect or patent ductus arteriosus. This report presents a case of such rarity involving a young child with recurrent lower respiratory tract infections.

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the critical congenital heart defects needing intervention within the first year of life.
Objective: This review aims to systematically assess the prevalence of Tetralogy of Fallot among children and adolescents with congenital heart defects in Sub-Saharan Africa from January 2000 to January 2024.
Methods: All original observational studies focused on children and adolescent population diagnosed with congenital heart defects within Sub-Saharan Africa; reported the primary outcome of interest were included.

CHDs affecting the right ventricular outflow tract often require repeated surgical or transcatheter interventions due to pulmonary insufficiency or stenosis. This study presents percutaneous implantation of large self-expanding valves in patients with complex right ventricular outflow tract anatomy after prior pulmonary branch stenting.
