Abstract
Patients with uncorrected Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) tend to be poor candidates for anaesthesia but with a goodunderstanding of the pathophysiology of the disease and an individualized anaesthetic plan, they can undergo surgicalinterventions safely. We report a case of a 7 year old boy with uncorrected TOF with features of raised intracranialpressure (ICP) due to a cerebral abscess who successfully underwent an emergency craniotomy with drainage at ourinstitution. Keywords: Tetralogy of Fallot, cerebral abscess, anaesthesia, cyanotic, heart disease
