Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann. 2013 Dec;21(6):713-6. doi: 10.1177/0218492312463217. Epub 2013 Jul 9.

Abstract

We describe the technical aspects of performing an atrial switch operation in a 4-year-old boy with d-transposition of the great arteries and partial anomalous drainage of the left-sided pulmonary veins. The rarity of the condition is discussed.

Keywords: Heart defects; atrial; congenital; heart septal defects; pulmonary circulation; pulmonary veins; transposition of great vessels.
