OBJECTIVE To study the surgical management of transposition of the great arteries with intact ventricular septum (TGA/IVS). METHODS Twelve patients with TGA/IVS were underwent repair during August 1999-December 2001. Senning procedure was used for age more than 2 months and switch operation for less than 1 month. RESULTS Three patients with TGA/IVS underwent repair by Senning procedure. Nine patients received switch operation and one died of single coronary artery. All patients were followed up about 2 months to 2 years and the result was satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS TGA/IVS must be diagnosed and repaired as early as possible. The best age for switch operation is less than 2 weeks or at best less than 1 month.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.

D014188 Transposition of Great Vessels A congenital cardiovascular malformation in which the AORTA arises entirely from the RIGHT VENTRICLE, and the PULMONARY ARTERY arises from the LEFT VENTRICLE. Consequently, the pulmonary and the systemic circulations are parallel and not sequential, so that the venous return from the peripheral circulation is re-circulated by the right ventricle via aorta to the systemic circulation without being oxygenated in the lungs. This is a potentially lethal form of heart disease in newborns and infants.
