Congenitally Corrected Transposition and D-Transposition of the Great Arteries

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Cardiac Surgery

Abstract

This chapter describes the pertinent pathoanatomy of D-transposition of the great arteries, L-transposition of the great arteries (congenitally corrected transposition), as well as the malpositions of the great arteries associated with double-outlet right ventricle. It also comprises the surgical options to correct and palliate these complex defects. This includes correction of further complicating features like VSD and ventricular outflow tract obstructions and anomalies of the coronary arteries. The classic operations dealt with are carrying the names of Senning, Mustard, Rastelli, Nikaidoh, and Ilbawi. Special treatment options include palliative features like pulmonary artery banding and aortopulmonary shunts, both as mere palliations and as measures for retraining anatomical left ventricles.
