Two-stage arterial switch for late-presenting transposition of the great arteries

Ventricular retraining and arterial switch have been described in late-presenting transposition of the great arteries (TGA) in older infants who were unable to undergo neonatal arterial switch operation (ASO) and late survivors of atrial switch with systemic right ventricular dysfunction. There are little data available on patients presenting between these 2 groups. This study aims to review the early and mid-term outcomes of the management of late-presenting TGA with an unprepared left ventricle (LV) by a 2-stage arterial switch
