Abstract EN

Nephrotic syndrome is an uncommon complication of tetralogy of Fallot and has been rarely reported in pediatric population.

We describe a 4-year-old female Congolese child who was referred for investigation for persistent dyspnea, edema, and cyanosis and nephrotic range proteinuria.

Our patient presented with a tetralogy of Fallot and nephrotic syndrome.

Conclusion.

This case reminds us that children with tetralogy of Fallot may develop nephrotic proteinuria.
