Title: Transposition of the great arteries and sinus venosus defect with partially anomalous pulmonary venous return: physiological and anatomic considerations. Author: Raju V, Rathod R, Quinonez LG, Baird CW. Journal: Cardiol Young; 2015 Apr; 25(4):787-9. PubMed ID: 24905964. Abstract: Transposition of the great arteries is a common congenital heart defect causing cyanosis in neonates, occurring in 0.2 per 1000 live births. It has been reported to occur with other associated congenital heart lesions. However, its association with a superior sinus venosus defect and partially anomalous pulmonary venous return has not been reported. We present a neonate with transposition of the great arteries, superior sinus venosus defect with partially anomalous pulmonary venous return that underwent successful complete neonatal repair, and discuss important physiological and anatomic considerations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
