We report the case of a mediastinocutaneous fistula, 13 years after the total correction of tetralogy of Fallot. During a fistula curettage operation, we unexpectedly extracted a ventricular septal defect patch. An interventricular shunt was not detected after the operation. The patient is well 3 years after the last operation.
