A member asked:

Why we can't put tetralogy of fallot as a differential diagnosis for infantile respiratory distress syndrome?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Medical Student??: If you are a healthcare student being asked to generate a differential diagnosis list for rds you could absolutely include ductal dependent congenital heart diseases. However tof may not be apparent until after the neonatal period unless there is profound outflow obstruction (like pulmonary atresia).
