Figures

None — Fig. 1 An electrocardiogram illustrates the Katz-Wachtel phenomenon (a large, equiphasic QRS voltage in midprecordial leads), indicating biventricular hypertrophy.

None — Fig. 2 Transthoracic echocardiography shows tetralogy of Fallot: a perimembranous ventricular septal defect (arrow), an overriding aorta (Ao), and right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy. LV = left ventricle Real-time motion image is available at texasheart.org/journal.

None — Fig. 3 Iodine contrast injection into the aortic root (Ao) reveals the anomalous origin of the right pulmonary artery (arrows) from the proximal ascending aorta. Real-time motion image is available at texasheart.org/journal.

None — Fig. 4 Iodine contrast injection into the main pulmonary artery (MPA) shows only the left pulmonary artery (LPA) with its branches. The right pulmonary artery (asterisk) is not opacified. Real-time motion image is available at texasheart.org/journal.
