Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is a congenital cardiac anomaly with ventriculoarterial discordant connection and atrioventricular discordant connection. This report describes a 17 year old male patient who had congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries associated with ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus, underwent patch closure of the ventricular septal defect and suture closure of patent ductus arteriosus, and was discharged on 9th day after surgery with good condition.

Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries is a rare congenital heart anomaly. We experienced two case of corrected transposition of great arteries, one [S,L,L] and one [I, D,D] associated with patent foramen ovale, ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. The patent foramen ovales were closed directly under right atriotomy, the ventricular septal defects were closed with Dacron patch under morphological left ventriculotomy and the pulmonary valvular and subvalvular stenosis were corrected under pulmonary arteriotomy. The postoperatively course was uneventful in case I, the permanent pacemaker was implanted in case ll.

Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries is a congenital cardiac anomaly with ventriculoarterial discordant connection and atrioventricular discordant connection. A 8-year-old girl had congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary valvular stenosis. By transaortic approach, ventricular septal defect was closed and pulmonary valvotomy was performed by transpulmonary approach. No heart block or aortic insufficiency developed postoperatively.

Corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.] is a very rare congenital cardiac malformation in which the atria and ventricles are in discordant relation, as are the ventricles and great arteries, but the aorta is to the right of the pulmonary artery. A 13 year old male patient who complained cyanosis and dyspnea on exertion for 8 years, was diagnosed as congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.], large ventricular septal defect, patent foramen ovale and pulmonary stenosis. He was operated on Nov. 22 1978. The ventricular septal defect was closed with Teflon felt and the pulmonary hypoplasia was corrected with Rastelli operation successfully. On 34th postoperative days, complete heart block was occurred and permanent epicardial pacemaker was implanted with good result.

Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is defined as the anomaly of atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance. Although this condition is compatible with longevity, it is usually associated with other congenital cardiac anomalies, which result in a greatly shortened life span. This report describes a 2 years old female patient who had congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries associated with ASD, VSD and pulmonary stenosis. The ASD was closed directly through the right atriotomy and the VSD was closed using Dacron patch through right ventriculotomy and the pulmonary[valvular, supra and subvalvular] stenosis was repaired with the use of a valved conduit woven Dacron vessel graft between the pulmonary ventricle and the main pulmonary artery.

Transaortic closure of ventricular septal defect, suturing a patch on the morphological right ventricular side in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries might help to avoid postoperative complete heart block if the aorta is large and the subaortic conus is not well developed. In two patients[aged 6 and 16 years] with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries, ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary stenosis, transaortic closure of ventricular septal defect was performed. No postoperative complete heart block resulted. One hospital death occurred because of sepsis who had underwent reoperation due to bleeding from the aortotomy site. Minimal aortic regurgitation developed in another patient.

Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is a rare congenital heart anomaly, in isolation, has no hemodynamic consequences. It is usually associated with one or more of a variety of intracardiac lesions, ventricular septal defect, valvular or subvalvular pulmonary stenosis, and deformity of the systemic atrioventricular valve with insufficiency. This report describes a successful two stage operation for congenitally corrected transposition, [SLL] type, with ventricular septal defect, pulmonary atresia, persistent ductus arteriosus, and atrial septal defect. A 9 years old patient underwent modified Blalock-Taussig operation because of severe pulmonary hypoplasia. 2 years later a corrective operation, direct closure of ASD and PDA, VSD closure with Dacron patch, Enlargement of left pulmonary artery with pericardial patch and Relief of ROTO with Rastelli procedure could be successfully performed without complication.

The clinical, investigative, and surgical experiences were reviewed in four patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries who presented to the National Medical Center between August 1983 and August 1985. This condition is very rare congenital anomaly defined as the combination of atrioventricular discordance and transposition of the great arteries. Examples of primitive [single] ventricle inverted [that is, left sided in situs solitus] with outflow chamber were excluded in this paper. According to the sequential arrangement of the hearts there were two cases of [S,L,L] and two cases of [I,D,D]. The surgical approach should be focused on minimizing the risk of heart block and increasing the degree of relief of pulmonary outflow tract obstruction [POTO]. We experienced complete heart block in two cases of [S,L,L] and significant residual POTO in one case of [S,L,L] and one case of [I,D,D] postoperatively. There were one hospital mortality caused by complete heart block and residual POTO and two delayed mortalities caused by congestive heart failure and sepsis respectively.

The patient in whom corrected transposition of the great vessels is an isolated congenital anomaly has a physiologically normal circulation. A 19 year old male was perforemd with surgical correction for congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (SLL) associated with ventricular septal defect (type I) and severe pulmonary stenosis. After right sided ventriculotomy, ventricular septal defect was repaired with Dacron patch and to provide adequate relief of severe valvar stenosis of pulmonary artery, valvulotomy was done. On immediate postoperative period, complete heart block and lower cardiac output state were ocurred, but adequate blood pressure could be maintained under using of inotropic agent and temporary pace-maker.

A seventeen-month-old male baby, who had received conventional biventricular repair for congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, underwent excision of supratricuspid ring. Although tricuspid valve annulus was marginally small on direct inspection in the operating theater, circumferential excision of supratricuspid ring alone completely relieved the right ventricular inflow obstruction.
