Abstract:
A case of 38-year-old woman with corrected transposition of great arteries is reported. She was admitted for acute cardiac failure caused by not only the left-side atrioventricular regurgitation for the ruptured chordae tendineae, but also the right-side one. We have to perform double valve replacement emergently due to the progression of biventricular failure. Very few reports have described a surgical repair of the right-sided valve replacement. The postoperative course was favorable.
