Corrected transposition of the great vessels: a vectorcardiographic study.

The vectorcardiograms (VCGs) of two groups of patients with corrected transposition of the great vessels (CTGV) were studied; the first, group A, included 17 patients with CTGV in "situs solitus,", characterized by leftward orientation of the cardiac apex; the second group, group B, with three patients, presented CTGV in "situs solitus" and apex to the right. All cases had one or more associated defects: ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, pulmonic stenosis or tricuspid insufficiency.

Surgical treatment of the congenital fistulae of coronary arteries.

Six cases of coronary artery fistulae surgically treated are presented. All patient but one was male; the ages varied from 4 to 44 years. The fistulae originated from the left coronary artery in three cases from the right in two cases and from both arteries in one case. The draining heart chambers were the right atrium in three, the right ventricle in two and the pulmonary artery in one case. Associated lesions were present in three cases. One patient died on the early postoperative period and the evolution was satisfactory in five cases.

Successful correction of double-outlet right ventricle with a ventricular D-l-malposition of the great arteries, bilateral conus, pulmonary stenosis and subaortic ventricular septal defect.

The authors present the case of a fifteen-year old girl with double outlet right ventricle with ventricular d-loop and l-malposition of the great arteries, bilateral conus, pulmonary stenosis and subaortic ventricular septal defect, who was operated on successfully. This is the fourth case of double outlet right ventricle with l-position of the aorta that has been surgically corrected. The subaortic position of the interventricular defect favours the creation of the tunnel connecting the left ventricle with the aorta without obstructing the right ventricular outflow tract. The patient was doing well 11 months postoperatively.
