Correction of corrected transposition of the great arteries associated with cardiac anomalies

Abstract

Reported in this paper are 8 cases of corrected transposition of the great arteries associated with anomalies. All the patients underwent the repair of the ventricular septal defect and atrial septal defect, the replacement of left-side tricuspid valve, the pulmonary valvotomy and the placement of extra-cardiac conduit to the pulmonary trunk respectively with no hospital death after operation. The paper also described the selection of the heart incision, the prevention of injury of the conduction system and indication of the placement of extra-cardiac conduit.
