Ann Thorac Surg. 1995 Feb;59(2):515-7; discussion 517-8. doi: 10.1016/0003-4975(94)00859-6.

Abstract

Aortic translocation is a useful surgical option in certain difficult subsets of transposition of great arteries with ventricular septal defect and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We report here the use of this technique with pulmonary homograft reconstruction of right ventricular pulmonary artery continuity in a child with transposition of the great arteries, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and restrictive ventricular septal defect.
