The trilogy of Fallot is a congenital heart condition consisting of the following:
* pulmonary valve stenosis
* right ventricular hypertrophy
* atrial septal defect

The first two of these are also found in the tetralogy of Fallot. However, the tetralogy has a ventricular septal defect instead of an atrial one, and it also involves an overriding aorta.

It is named for Etienne Fallot. [WhoNamedIt|synd|2283]
