Abstract

We present a description of the surgical repair of the unusual anatomy of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (S, L, L) and balanced atrioventricular septal defect. This anatomy not only presents a dilemma regarding palliation versus anatomic correction, but also regarding the approach to the conduction tissue during surgical repair.
