Tetralogy of Fallot occurs in approximately 30 to 60 per 100,000 births. Tetralogy of Fallot represents 5-7% of [[congenital heart defect]]s. The majority of cases are thought to be sporadic and are not [[familial]]. Tetralogy of Fallot occurs slightly more often in [[Male|males]] than in [[females]].
Tetralogy of Fallot occurs in approximately 3 to 6 per 10,000 births and represents 5-7% of congenital heart defects. Its cause is thought to be due to environmental or genetic factors or a combination.  It is associated with chromosome 22 deletions and [[diGeorge syndrome]]. It occurs slightly more often in males than in females.
