Abstract
-
A 4-year and 11-month old child was diagnosed as having dextrocardia, pulmonary atresia, atrioventricular discordance, aorta from right ventricle, PDA, the interruption of right pulmonary artery and postoperative state of Blalock-Taussig shunt on right pulmonary artery. Anatomical repair so called "double switch operation" was performed; the Ratelli procedure on ventricular level and the Mustard procedure on atrial level. We report the successful anatomical repair of congenitally Physiologically Corrected Transposition even with Dextrocardia, Situs Inversus and the interruption of Right Pulmonary Artery.
