Corrected Transposition: Anatomic Repair Using the Hemi-Mustard Atrial Baffle and Bidirectional Superior Cavopulmonary Connection.

Corrected Transposition: Anatomic Repair Using the Hemi-Mustard Atrial Baffle and Bidirectional Superior Cavopulmonary Connection. Seminars in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery. Pediatric cardiac surgery annual Ma, M. n., Mainwaring, R. D., Hanley, F. L. 2019; 22: 51–56

Abstract

Anatomic repair for congenitally corrected transposition requires thoughtful surgical planning at both initial (neonatal or late) presentation, and during definitive repair. An algorithmic approach to the overall management of this lesion, with its many associated intracardiac anomalies, is presented. Modified atrial switch with bidirectional superior cavopulmonary connection is commonly utilized and demonstrates favorable results through a 20-year experience. Herein, technical considerations learned during the implementation of this strategy are described and emphasize the concept, in selected cases, of native pulmonary root preservation by translocation as an adjunct that is uniquely suited by adopting this approach.
