The metabolic disorders associated with chronic hypoxemia in adult patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) have not been fully appreciated. We report a 53-year-old male patient with TOF who presented with fasting hypoglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, increased blood levels of free fatty acids, adiponectin, B-type natriuretic peptide, and uric acid. The cluster of these metabolic derangements has not been previously reported, and the possible role of chronic hypoxia in the production of these disturbances is discussed with a review of pertinent literatures.
