Dextro-Transposition of Great Arteries and Neurodevelopmental Outcomes: A Review of the Literature
Background: Arterial switch operation (ASO) is the gold-standard surgical approach for dextro-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA). It is performed during the neonatal period and has almost diminished the previously high mortality rate (from 90 ...

Balloon Atrial Septostomy in a Premature Infant
Balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) in premature and very low weight infants has not been described. We present a successful BAS in a 1.4-kg, 13-day-old ex–31 6/7–week infant with dextro-transposition of the great arteries and a restrictive atrial septum ...

The atrial switch patient with a dilated subpulmonic left ventricle
In patients with dextro-transposition of the great arteries, the atrial switch procedures reroute the venous inflows and direct them to the opposite ventricles by the creation of intra-atrial baffles.

The world upside down – after 20 years of follow-up of dextro-transposition of the great arteries
Dextro-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA) is a congenital heart disease (CHD) classically palliated with atrial switch (ATR-S) and nowadays corrected with arterial switch (ART-S).
