Abstract

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.
