Resumo de Recurso
transposition of the great arteries
right to left shunt
=discordant ventriculo-arterial connection
aorta connected to right ventricle
pulmonary artery connected to left ventricle
blue blood is returned to body
& pink blood returns to lungs
i.e. 2 parallel circulations
incompatible with life
unless there is mixing of the blood btw them
e.g. by VSD, ASD, PDA
Clinical features
Sx
cyanosis
main sx
profond and life-threatening
usually presents on day 2 of life
ductal closure-> marked reduction in mixing of sat and desat blood
less severe and presentation delayed if there is more mixing of blood
from assoc anomalies e.g. ASD
physical signs
cyanosis
always present
loud & single S2
usually no murmur
but maybe systolic murmur
from increased flow or stenosis within left ventricular (pulmonary) outflow tract
Ix
CXR
classic findings
narrow upper mediastinum
due to ant-post relationship of great vessels & narrow vascular pedicle
cardiac shadow: egg on side appearance
due to hypertrophied right ventricle
increased pulmonary vasc markings
due to increased pulmonary blood flow
ECG
usually normal
Echo
to show abnormal arterial connections & assoc abnormalities
essential
Mx
in sick cyanosed neonate, key is to improve mixing
must maintain patency of ductus arteriosus
w/ prostaglandin infusion
balloon atrial septostomy
life-saving
done in 20% of cases
catheter with inflatable balloon at tip
passed through umbilical/femoral v through into right atrium and formaen ovale
balloon inflated in left atrium & pulled back through atrial septum
atrial septum torn, so foramen ovale valve left incompetent
so sys and pulmonary venous blood can mix
surgery
all pts w/ TGA need this
usually arterial switch procedure
done in neonatal period (esp 1st few days of life)
pul artery & aorta are transected above arterial valves & switched over
