Transposition of the great vessels with ventricular septal defect

[complete Transposition of the Great Vessels with Atrial Septal Defect].

Corrected transposition of the great vessels, atrioventricular heart block, and ventricular septal defect: a clinical triad.

Effect of Ventricular Septal Defect and Patent Ductus Arteriosus on Left Ventricular Pressure in Complete Transposition of the Great Vessels

The relationship between the pressures in the left and right ventricles was examined in 80 infants and children who had complete transposition of the great vessels and in whom the presence of a ventricular septal defect or a patent ductus arteriosus was known. All children with obstruction to left ventricular outflow have been excluded. It was found that 92% (34 of 37) of the children with tran...

Results of the Arterial Switch Operation for Transposition of the Great Arteries With Ventricular Septal Defect

Between January 1983 and December 1987, 62 patients underwent an arterial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect or double outlet right or left ventricle. There were three hospital deaths (4.8%), and no deaths occurred in neonates (<1 month of age, n= 18). There were three late deaths, one due to coronary obstruction and two due to pulmonary vasc...

Creation of an atrial septal defect in transposition of the great vessels.

Four-fifths of the infants with transposition of the great vessels die within the first year of life (Abbott, 1936). Fifty-two per cent. die within the first month and 86% are dead within six months (Keith, Neill, Viad, Rowe, and Chute, 1953). This lesion in some form occurs in 20% of necropsies on patients with congenital heart disease (Keith, Rowe, and Vlad, 1958). In Birmingham, transpositio...
