“…However, it can be used in pressure measurements and an interventional procedure such as angioplasty is planned [7]. Although echocardiography usually remains the primary imaging technique in congenital heart disease, comprehensive anatomic and functional analysis can not be obtained by its [11]. In addition, it is an operator-dependent method and may present difficulties of older children, adults, and patient who have undergone surgery [9,13].…”

A 56-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital because of dyspne and chest pain. A chest radiograph showed mild cardiomegaly. Echocardiography revealed unusual chamber in the heart. The chamber beneath the left atrium was morphologically right ventricle. To evaluate the precise complex anatomy of this abnormality, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography was performed. MDCT clearly revealed complex intracardiac and vascular anatomy, including typical imaging findings of a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA). We described both imaging findings of MDCT angiography and interpretation of complex vascular anatomy in a patient with CCTGA.

“…1 The pathogenesis of ccTGA is considered to be multifactorial with rare familial incidence. The occurrence of fraternal twins with similar environmental intrauterine exposures resulting in the same diagnosis of PCD and ccTGA but contrasting situs highlights the role that genetics and environmental factors may play in the development of ccTGA and its variants.…”

Subpulmonary Obstruction Due to Aneurysmal Ventricular Septum in a Patient with Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries and Dextrocardia

Congenitally corrected Transposition of Great Arteries is usually associated with multiple cardiac defects. Morphologic left-ventricular outflow (pulmonary) tract obstruction due to aneurysm of the membranous ventricular septum in patients with corrected transposition and ventricular septal defect is rare, but was reported in the past. This is even more uncommon in patients with dextrocardia, prompting us to document this case. Absence of the conus with resultant proximity of the aneurysm to the subpulmonary region and higher pressures in the left-sided morphologic right ventricle lead to obstruction of outflow tract in corrected transposition. Echocardiogram with Doppler interrogation and cardiac catheterization with selective cineangiography are the diagnostic tests of choice. Surgical resection of the aneurysm with patch closure of ventricular septal defect, avoiding injury to the conduction system, is recommended.University Heart Journal Vol. 10, No. 1, January 2014; 31-38
