Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is a rare defect combining atrioventricular discordance with ventriculoarterial discordance. The atria are connected to the opposite ventricle (left atrium to right ventricle via a tricuspid valve) and the ventricles are connected to the incorrect great artery (right ventricle to aorta). Thus oxygenated blood is circulated syste...
متن کاملCongenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries
Results Pre-operative SVEF was the only independent predictor of 1-year post-operative SVEF (p 0.0001). The late SVEF was preserved (defined as 40%) in 63% of patients who underwent surgery with an SVEF 40% compared with 10.5% of patients who underwent surgery with an SVEF 40%. Pre-operative variables associated with late mortality were an SVEF 40%, a subpulmonary ventricular systolic pressure ...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Anomalies Associated With Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Great Arteries: Expect the Unexpected
OBJECTIVE Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (CCTGA) is characterized by atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance. Characterizations of these anomalies are important because they may influence surgical approach and management. METHODS We present a case of newly diagnosed CCTGA at the age of 50. He presented with sudden onset of shortness of breath for the first ...
متن کاملLevosimendan in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries: A Case Report
We present a case of acute decompensated heart failure in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries treated with levosimendan, an agent with positive inotropic and vasodilatory effects. Levosimendan infusion resulted in symptomatic and functional improvement, improvement of the subpulmonary left ventricular systolic function and amelioration of the diastolic but not ...
متن کاملPregnancy among women with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries.
OBJECTIVES The outcome of pregnancy in congenitally corrected transposition of the great vessels was studied in 22 women. BACKGROUND Women with congenitally corrected transposition of the great vessels often reach childbearing age. Although reports on the outcome of pregnancy in these women are available, the number of patients is small. METHODS The medical and surgical databases at the May...
