Surgical Management of a Neonate with Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Vessels, Hypoplastic Right Aortic Arch, and Ebstein Anomaly

Abstract: We report a neonate with a primary diagnosis of congenitally corrected transposition (ccTGA) of the great vessels, hypoplastic right aortic arch, and a severely regurgitant Ebstein tricuspid valve (TV). During the fetal period, she was listed for heart transplantation, and two weeks after birth due to a deterioration of her general condition, we performed a Norwood-Sano modified procedure. After 58 days a donor heart became available and the baby successfully received a orthotopic heart transplantation.

“…The modified Blalock Taussig shunt is sometimes used as a part of surgical treatment in severely symptomatic neonates with Ebstein anomaly [43]. In cases where aortic arch courses on the right, the construction of the modified Blalock Taussig shunt may be difficult and thus application of further modifications or even alternative surgical methods may be needed [20,44].…”

“…Associated cardiac anomalies include pulmonary stenosis, pulmonary atresia, ventricular septal defect, cardiomyopathies, coarctation of aorta, bicuspid aortic valve, mitral valve prolapse, and other rarer abnormalities [2,13,[15][16][17][18][19]. Among associated cardiac anomalies, right aortic arch is extremely rare and only few such cases have been described in the literature so far [1,[20][21][22]. Non-cardiac malformations or genetic syndromes are found in about 19-22% of patients with Ebstein anomaly.…”
