چکیده

Stenting of the left pulmonary venous baffle obstruction was successfully performed in a 6 year old girl after the Mustard operation for transposition of the great arteries. She also had stent implantation in both the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava baffle junctions. These procedures were followed by sustained clinical improvement. Angiography showed that all three stents were fully patent a year after the procedure.

Balloon dilatation of complete obstruction of the superior vena cava after Mustard operation for transposition of great arteries.

Balloon dilatation was successfully performed in two patients with complete obstruction of the superior vena cava baffle junction after a Mustard operation for transposition of the great arteries. Evidence for complete relief of obstruction in the first patient, aged 4 years, was obtained by angiography, which showed improved calibre at the site of obstruction and improved haemodynamic pressure...

Late postoperative hemodynamic results and cineangiocardiographic findings after Mustard atrial baffle repair for transposition of the great arteries.

Forty-nine patients with transposition of the great arteries who underwent a Mustard atrial baffle repair between 1964 and 1971 were assessed late postoperatively. There have been five late deaths: two related to baffle obstruction, two from noncardiac causes, and one sudden and unexpected. Hemodynamic data were available in 42 patients and autopsy in four. Obstruction of the lower venous chann...
