Abnormalities in aortic arch geometry do not lead to reduced exercise performance: a comparison study between patients with transposition of the great arteries repaired by arterial switch operation and normal controls
Background Abnormal aortic arch geometry, in particular the ‘gothic arch’, has been associated with reduced exercise performance in patients with repaired aortic coarctation. Following the arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA), the morphology of the aorta is also known to be abnormal, presenting with dilated aortic root and ‘gothic’ deformity of the aorti...
متن کاملسپتوستومی دهلیزی با راهنمایی اکوکاردیوگرافی: گزارش هشت بیمار
Background: Balloon atrial septostomy is an emergent procedure in pediatric cardiology. Nowadays, most patients in need of the procedure have acceptable outcomes after surgical repair. Thus, it is important to perform this procedure as safe as possible. By performing early arterial switch operation and prostaglandin infusion, the rate of balloon atrial septostomy has markedly decreased. Howeve...
متن کاملHemodynamic evaluation in patients with transposition of the great arteries after the arterial switch operation: 4D flow and 2D phase contrast cardiovascular magnetic resonance compared with Doppler echocardiography
BACKGROUND Peak velocity measurements are used to evaluate the significance of stenosis in patients with transposition of the great arteries after the arterial switch operation (TGA after ASO). 4D flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides 3-directional velocity encoding and full volumetric coverage of the great arteries and may thus improve the hemodynamic evaluation in these patien...
متن کاملAn atrial flutter in a 40-year-old woman with situs inversus, transposition of the great arteries, atrial switch, and interruption of the inferior vena cava
Introduction Adult patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) are growing in number with the improvement in corrective techniques. Atrial arrhythmias are a common complication in the long-term follow-up of CHD patients, with a negative impact on morbidity and mortality. Dextro-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) is one of the most lifethreatening types of CHD, accounting for approxima...
متن کاملPediatric Truncus Arteriosus and Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) — Causes and Survival Rate
Truncus arteriosus is characterized by the presence of a common arterial trunk arising from both ventricles while transposition of the great arteries is a cyanotic congenital heart defect that is characterized by a pulmonary artery arising from the left ventricle and an aorta arising from the right ventricle. Patients with these two conditions are usually cyanotic and are usually diagnosed with...
