Description
This 3D-printed tetralogy of Fallot anatomical model is a one-of-a-kind product. We created this model for medical professionals seeking a greater understanding of this condition or to educate their patients on the condition and possible treatment options.
The model also provides a visual aid for medical students learning about the condition and its effects on the heart. The product is very durable, and will withstand regular handling and observation. It is lightweight and portable as well, making it easy to transport and use in various locations.
This model represents the heart of an adult born with tetralogy of Fallot. With an accurate and extremely detailed representation of the anatomy and the defects, users will gain a comprehensive understanding of this heart’s state. We colored the replica to show the features of this heart, including venous blood, arterial blood and surgical artifacts. This model brings the condition to life in your classroom.

WHAT IS TETRALOGY OF FALLOT?
Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital heart condition characterized by four distinct heart defects, including a ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, an overriding aorta, and a hypertrophic right ventricle. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 1 in 2,518 babies in the U.S. are born with tetralogy of Fallot. Despite the complexity, treating newborns with this condition with surgery can help ensure they live a healthy life.
