Abstract:
A case of a 39-year-old woman with corrected transposition of the great vessels without significant intracardiac anomaly or coronary disease is reported. The clinical diagnosis of coronary arterial disese was supported in this patient by electrocardiographic changes of probable old anteroseptal myocardial infarction. Coronary arteriographic study showed the morphologic left coronary artery supplied the right-sided ventricle, and the right coronary artery supplied the left-sided ventricle, and the right coronary artery supplied the left-sided ventricle. Although the condition is theoretically compatible with a normal life span, few patient with this lesion survive past 40 years of age because of the subsequent heart block or functioning as a systemic ventricle.
