DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/ehaa946.2175
Abstract: Patients after atrial switch surgery for transposition of the great arteries (TGA-AtrSO) experience serious clinical events during adulthood, mainly heart failure and arrhythmias, but data on the emerging risks remain scarce. To assess the risk… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/chd.12861
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Patients with Dextro-transposition of the great arteries status post atrial switch (dTGA s/p atrial switch) are "at-risk" for systemic right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Due to complex RV geometry, echocardiography (Echo) does not allow accurate… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2019.00039
Abstract: Introduction: Adult survivors of the atrial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries present with a systemic morphologic right ventricle and a subpulmonary morphologic left ventricle. This physiology can be considered a model for… read more here.
