Tiivistelmä
<p>The typical ECG changes in tetralogy of Fallot are right axis deviation, large R waves in the anterior precordial leads and large S waves in the lateral precordial leads. We present a patient with extreme deviation of the frontal QRS axis between −90° and ± 180°. The child underwent open heart surgery twice before one year of age and a third time at nine years of age. The axis change persisted into adulthood.</p>
