摘要
BACKGROUND Patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) often have arrhythmias, commonly being atrial fibrillation (AF). Radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for AF and does not usually cause severe postoperative hypoxemia, but the risk of complications may increase in patients with conditions such as TOF. CASE SUMMARY We report a young male patient with a history of TOF repair who developed severe hypoxemia after radiofrequency ablation for AF and was ultimately confirmed to have a new right-to-left shunt. The patient subsequently underwent atrial septal occlusion and eventually recovered. CONCLUSION Radiofrequency ablation may cause iatrogenic atrial septal injury; thus possible complications should be predicted in order to ensure successful treatment and patient safety.
