Conditions associated with tetralogy of Fallot.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following conditions is commonly associated with tetralogy of Fallot?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Polycythemia. In tetralogy of Fallot, there is a decreased blood flow to the lungs, causing chronic hypoxia. The body compensates by producing more red blood cells, leading to polycythemia. This condition is commonly associated with tetralogy of Fallot due to the chronic hypoxia.
Choice A, heart failure, may occur in severe cases but is not a defining feature. Option B, asthma, is not typically associated with tetralogy of Fallot.
Choice D, pulmonary hypertension, may develop as a consequence of the heart defect but is not as commonly associated as polycythemia.
