Pulmonary root translocation for borderline complex coarctation of aorta and multiple ventricular septal defects.
We describe a case of complex left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, multiple muscular ventricular septal defects, aortic coarctation and a hypoplastic aortic arch, where staged biventricular repair was performed successfully using pulmonary root translocation.
