title: Selective coronary arteriography in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries.
abstract: Three cases of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries in adults who underwent selective coronary arteriography are presented. The morphologic features of the epicardial coronary anatomy are distinctive and are identifiable angiographically as morphologically right and left coronary arteries that are specifically concordant with the morphologically right and left ventricles. This relation is constant in the presented cases, in previously published coronary arteriograms of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and in a review of the anatomic studies of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries that identify the coronary arterial pattern. Thus the angiographic characteristics of the epicardial coronary arterial pattern permit identification of the morphologic features of the underlying ventricle regardless of other spatial relations.
