A patient with tetralogy of Fallot suffered minimal disability until the age of 45 years, when she developed bacterial endocarditis complicated by
hemiplegia

lobar pneumonia
in her 84th year. We present the post-mortem findings, since as far as we are aware this is the longest recorded survivorship of a patient with tetralogy of Fallot.
