“…Long-term results are reassuring, especially after incorporation of the technical modification proposed by LeCompt, which decreased the prevalence of pulmonary artery stenoses 56. New techniques have also been developed for pulmonary translocation 57. However, there has been some concern about the status of the coronary arteries in the long term.…”

Congenital heart diseases are one of the most common structural defects present at birth, with an approximate incidence of 8 per 1000 live births. As most countries in South America have a high birth rate, they are a significant public health concern. This paper provides a brief overview of the burden of congenital heart disease in South America, focusing on its local prevalence, facilities for treatment and outcomes after medical, surgical or catheter intervention for the most common diseases.

“…Pulmonary root translocation with the pulmonary valve to the RV is an important alternative surgical technique to correct this CHD (Chiavarelli, 1992). This concept was used to correct TGA, VSD and LVOTO (Silva, 2000). In this procedure the pulmonary artery and its branches were dissected from the aorta and its posterior connections.…”
