title: [Transposition of great vessels with pulmonary stenosis and interventricular communication. Anatomic and surgical aspects. Apropos of 10 cases].
abstract: 10 cases of anomalous position of the great vessels are reported. They include 8 cases of d-transpositions, 1 of 1-transposition and 1 anatomically corrected malposition. These cases have in common the combination of a ventricular septal defect with a pulmonary stenosis. The anatomical study (6 of 10 cases) made it possible to describe the type of the VSD (related to a defect of development and/or alinement of parietal on the septal band) and of the pulmonary pathway stenosis. Blalock's anastomosis has made it possible to obtain an improvement in 6 patients. 4 operations of complete cure were undertaken in d-transpositions: 2 Mustard's operations ending in death. 2 operations according to Rastelli's principles with one death and one good result. The case of anatomically corrected malposition died after an attempt at complete cure, in view of a left ventricular hypoplasia. The indication for the type of complete cure was discussed in relation with the anatomical data.
