Left-side pulmonary vein obstruction after arterial switch operation in infants with D-transposition of the great arteries

Mathias Emmel, I. Bauer, M. Plug, Sabine Schickendantz, U. Mennicken University of Cologne.Germany Pediatric CardiologyPediatr Cardiol 1997; 18: 306-308DOI: 10.1007/s002469900180 AbstractWe describe two cases of left-side pulmonary vein obstruction observed after the arterial switch operation (Jatene) for D-transposition of the great arteries. This appears to be related to left-sided pulmonary vein obstruction occurring coincidently with D-transposition
