Midterm Assessment of the Reconstructed Arteries After the Arterial Switch Operation
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2008The arterial switch operation is the preferred treatment for transposition of the great arteries (TGA), but there are concerns on the fate of the neoarterial trunks.Ninety-three children were reviewed for functional and morphologic assessment of both reconstructed arteries after the arterial switch operation.

Aortopulmonary Fistula After an Arterial Switch Operation
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010Aortopulmonary fistula has been documented in adult patients with acute aortic dissection, atherosclerotic disease, and other comorbidities. However, until now we believe this was not previously reported as a complication after the arterial switch operation in a patient with transposition of the great arteries.

Arterial Switch Operation for Transposition of the Great Arteries
2013Arterial switch (Jatene) procedure, which was developed in the late 1970s, is currently the method of choice for treatment of transposition of the great arteries (TGA). It reestablishes the left ventricle as a systemic pump, avoiding systemic ventricular failure associated with the atrial switch operation.

The Efficacy of Aprotinin in Arterial Switch Operations in Infants
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2008In the present study we assessed whether aprotinin at a total dose (40,000 kallikrein inhibitor units (KIU)/kg) is effective in reducing postoperative blood loss and blood product requirement after arterial switch operations in infants.A prospective, double-blind, randomized study, evaluated 50 infants who underwent arterial switch operations for ...

Late Complications Following the Arterial Switch Operation
World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2010The arterial switch operation has been the principal treatment for transposition of the great arteries and its variants for the last 25 years. Early mortality has decreased significantly over time, but long-term complications include pulmonary artery stenosis, coronary artery obstruction, neoaortic valvar insufficiency, arrhythmia, and aortic arch ...

Subneoaortic stenosis complicating the arterial switch operation
Cardiology in the Young, 2005We report obstruction of the reconstructed left ventricular outflow tract diagnosed 18 months after an arterial switch operation that included closure of a ventricular septal defect. We speculate that either turbulences created by the patch used to close the ventricular septal defect, or postoperative modifications of ventricular geometry, were ...

The Neonatal Arterial Switch Operation: Technical Pearls
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2017The neonatal arterial switch operation has become the standard of care for transposition of the great arteries, including transposition with intact ventricular septum, transposition with ventricular septal defect with or without aortic arch hypoplasia, and double outlet right ventricle with subpulmonary ventricular septal defect (Taussig-Bing anomaly).

Fate of Intramural Coronary Arteries after Arterial Switch Operation
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2002To evaluate the impact of intramural coronary arteries for the peri-, postoperative and long-term course after arterial switch operation (ASO).ASO was performed in 351 patients between 1981 and 2000 with dextrotransposition of the great arteries (d-TGA). Five patients (1.4 %) had an intramural coronary artery.

Arterial switch operation in non-facing coronary artery ostium
Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2019The arterial switch operation was performed on a 38-day-old infant with d-transposition of the great arteries and abnormal origin of the left anterior descending and right coronary arteries from a non-facing sinus. A vertical aortic tube flap was established to lengthen the abnormally originating coronary arteries, by transecting part of the ascending ...
