Atrial repair of d-TGA in early infancy resulted in 0% mortality, with normal growth in 33 of 36 patients, sinus rhythm in 24 of 36 patients, and a normal cardiac index in all 28 catheterized patients at follow-up.

Overview

Supports favorable outcomes with early atrial repair of d-TGA; leaves open need for randomized comparisons with arterial switch.

Structured PICO

What are the long-term clinical and hemodynamic outcomes of atrial repair of d-transposition of the great arteries performed in early infancy?

Population

52 patients younger than age 100 days with d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) and an intact interventricular septum or a small ventricular septal defect.

Intervention

Atrial repair of d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA)

Outcome

Long-term clinical and hemodynamic outcomes including mortality, growth, neurologic development, ECG findings, and catheterization results

Atrial repair of d-TGA in early infancy can be performed with zero mortality and a low incidence of late complications, maintaining good long-term hemodynamic outcomes.
