[A case of corrected transposition of great vessels in an adult. Value of magnetic resonance].
Corrected transposition of the great arteries is an unusual congenital heart defect, particularly in adults. Echocardiography and angiography are still cornerstones for its diagnosis. However, other techniques, as magnetic resonance imaging, may constitute a noinvasive diagnostic alternative to cardiac catheterization. We present one case of corrected transposition of the great arteries in an adult patient in which this method was used.
