Abstract 16391: Systemic Ventricular Dysfunction and Long Term Outcomes in Patients With D-transposition of the Great Arteries (D-TGA), Atrial Switch, and Systemic Right Ventricle Physiology
Abstract:Introduction:
Patients with D-TGA palliated with atrial switch operations have the morphologic right ventricle in the systemic position. There is increased risk of atrial arrhythmias and systemic right ventricle (SRV) failure. We sought to analyze the long term outcomes of these patients.
Methods:
All patients with D-TGA and SRV followed in the Adult Congenital Heart Disease Clinic of a large tertiary care institution were reviewed. A comprehensive retr… Show more
