چکیده

Ten children who had had transposition of the great vessels (TGV) repaired, deep hypothermia, and cardiac arrest were examined. Seven children with acyanotic heart disease and 12 unaffected siblings were tested for comparison. Their intelligence, academic achievement, and behaviour was studied. The group with TGV had lower performance subscores on the intelligence test, an increase in somatic complaints, and aggressive behaviour.

A 33-day-old Infant with the Transposition of the Great Arteries; A Rare Case Report

The discordant ventriculoarterial arrangement results in parallel circulation, it so is vital to understand the management. We report a rare interesting but critical case of 33-day-old boy who developed cyanosis and had transposition of great arteries combined with interrupte...

The Coronary Circulation in Complete Transposition of the Great Vessels.

While the anatomy of the coronary arteries in complete transposition of the great vessels has been studied by several authors, the overall problem of adequacy of the coronary blood supply in this condition has received less attention. Spitzer (1923) described the probable embryological basis for partial or complete transposition of the coronary arteries. Astley and Parsons (1952) thought that m...

Pulmonary vascular disease in transposition of the great vessels and intact ventricular septum.

Eight of 135 (6%) children with d-transposition of the great vessels and with intact ventricular septum and no patent ductus arteriosus had evidence of progressive pulmonary vascular disease. Seven of 101 (7%) patients for whom histologic data was available, had Heath-Edwards grades IV or V pulmonary vascular disease, six had grade II, and 88 had either normal or grade I findings. One of 34 pat...

Echocardiography of the Intra - atrial Baffle in Dextro - transposition of the Great Vessels By NAVIN

Twelve patients with dextro-transposition of the great vessels (age eight months to four years) were studied by echocardiography following Mustard's procedure. Nine of them had also been studied preoperatively. Postoperatively all patients demonstrated structural echoes in the atrial cavity behind the pulmonary root. In ten, the motion pattern generally resembled that of a stenotic atrioventric...

Electrocardiogram in corrected transposition of the great vessels of the bulbo-ventricular inversion type.

Twenty cases of corrected transposition of the great vessels of the bulbo-ventricular inversion type, either lone or combined with other intracardiac anomalies, were analysed. Rhythm and/or atrio-ventricular conduction disturbances were common to all groups of cases. QRS pattern changes were found to be related both to ventricular inversion and to ventricular hypertrophy. Isolated corrected tra...
