Effects of preoperative veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation management and left atrial pressure reduction via balloon atrial septostomy on respiratory system compliance in a neonate with transposition of the great arteries with intact ventricular septum

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports
Background: Transposition of the great arteries with intact ventricular septum causes severe hypoxia immediately after birth. Balloon atrial septostomy is often required for oxygenation improvement, and severe cases may require veno-venous extracorporeal

TRANSPOSITION OF GREAT ARTERIES: NEW INSIGHTS INTO THE PATHOGENESIS

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2013
Transposition of great arteries (TGA) is one of the most common and severe congenital heart diseases (CHD). It is also one of the most mysterious CHD because it has no precedent in phylogenetic and ontogenetic development, it does not represent an ...
