Late diagnosis of isolated congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries in a 92-year old woman

Ludivine Wissocque et al. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg. 2016 May.

Abstract

We report the case of a 92-year old woman with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA). The case is remarkable as the CCTGA had remained undiagnosed until the diagnosis was made when the patient was aged 70 years, and had 10 pregnancies without heart failure.

Keywords: Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries; Elderly; Late diagnosis.
