King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

A successful anatomical correction of transposition of the great arteries with an atrioventricular septal defect is reported. This combination of anomalies is rare, and the anatomical correction is unusual in that the operation involves all four heart valves.

D004694	Endocardial Cushion Defects	A spectrum of septal defects involving the ATRIAL SEPTUM; VENTRICULAR SEPTUM; and the atrioventricular valves (TRICUSPID VALVE; BICUSPID VALVE). These defects are due to incomplete growth and fusion of the ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS which are important in the formation of two atrioventricular canals, site of future atrioventricular valves.

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.
