[Surgical treatment of cardiac abnormalities associated with corrected transposition of the great arteries (author's transl)].
Twelve patients with corrected transposition of the great arteries, who underwent surgical repair, are reported. In four cases a ventricular septal defect was present; in six cases, a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis and in two an incompetence of the systemic atrio-ventricular valve. The anatomic types of corrected transposition and the pertinent diagnostic characteristics were reviewed and discussed. The problems related to the surgical correction and the different approaches to the intracardiac lesions are considered and the difficulties of treating the obstruction of the venous ventricle successfully are emphasized.
