چکیده

Patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) have a morphologically right ventricle (mRV) that supports the systemic circulation. In these patients, regurgitation of the systemic tricuspid valve (TV) is one of the strongest risk factors for congestive heart failure and mRV dysfunction. Herein, we report the case of a patient with CCTGA plus dextrocardia who underwent TV replacement, mitral annuloplasty, and the Cox maze procedure with an excellent postoperative outcome.

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...
