Abstract :

 Tetralogy of fallot is the most commonly encountered cyanotic congenital heart disease. Uncorrected Tetralogy of fallot is rarely seen in adulthood in recent times. We report a case of 24 year old patient with Tetralogy of fallot , who presented with mid shaft femur fracture posted for intramedullary nailing. Surgery was successfully conducted under spinal anesthesia with a combination of Bupivacaine and Fentanyl. Spinal anaesthesia can be effective and a safe alternative to general anaesthesia in carefully selected patients.
