Abstract
According to foreign authors, the incidence of transposition of great arteries (TGA) among all congenital heart diseases (CHD) is 4.5–7%, which corresponds to a frequency of 20-30 cases per 100 000 live births. There is a predominance of the male, which ranges from 1.5: 1 to 3.2: 1. It is important that TGA is the most common GHD, accompanied by a critical condition, progressive hypoxemia and requiring urgent surgical procedures in the early days. Characterization of the anatomical location of the great arteries in TGA is important for the clinician, since it allows us to determine surgical tactics. The article presents the results of surgical treatment of patients with various forms of transposition of the great arteries in the department of surgery of congenital heart disease in the RSCS named after acad. V. Vahidov.
Keywords: transposition of the great arteries, arterial switch operation, Rastelli operation, REV operation, Nikaidoh operation.
