Surgery for transposition of great arteries: A historical perspective
The history of surgery for transposition of great arteries (TGA) has paralleled the history of cardiac surgery. In fact, it began before the birth of open heart surgery when the palliative Blalock-Hanlon septectomy was first performed in 1948. The atrial

Transposition of great arteries (TGA) is more commonly associated with D-malposition of great arteries where anterior aorta produces characteristic “I” sign in the three-vessel view (3VV) in fetal heart imaging.

Pulmonary, aorta, and coronary arteries post-arterial switch in transposition of great arteries: intermediate-term surveillance utilizing conventional echocardiography and cardiac multislice computed tomography [PDF]
Background Arterial switch operation (ASO) is the standard surgical choice for D-transposition of great arteries (D-TGA). However, the implications of ASO on pulmonaries, coronaries, and aorta have not been adequately investigated.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Levo-Transposition of the Great Arteries
Levo-transposition of the great arteries is a congenital heart disease characterized by atrioventricular and ventricular-arterial discordance. Aortic valve disease in levo-transposition of the great arteries patients is uncommon.

Transposition of the great arteries
Discussions of the various presenting forms of transposition and initial management of the infant in terms of relief of cyanosis and control of congestive heart failure precede a description of the author’s technique of palliation by balloon atrioseptostomy, which provides for adequate intracardiac mixing until total surgical correction can be ...

Prenatal diagnosis of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is a rare and complex congenital heart disease. It essentially occurs with atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance, in which the great vessels become parallel.

Transposition of the great arteries [PDF]
Transposition is the single most common cyanotic congenital heart lesion to present in early infancy. Here only the uncomplicated forms of transposition will be considered. Cyanosis is evident from the first day of life, if not from birth. At this time, this may be the only recognizable abnormality.
