Abstract:
Corrected transposition of the great arteries is usually characterized by inverted ventricles and transposition of the great arteries. This combination without cardiac anormalies results in normal arterial oxigen content, hence the term corrected. Unfortunately, the condition rarely exists without other major cardiac anormalies. The authors report a case of situs inversus that was associated with corrected TGA, VSD, PS and ASD. The girl was admitted for evaluation of systolic ejection murmur on the both lower sternal border. Doppler echocardiography and cardiac angiography showed the diagnosis and so valvulotomy and closure operation of VSD and ASD was done.
