Abstract

It is well known that corrected transposition of the great arteries (C-TGA) is accompanied with tricuspid valve regurgitation, but very few reports have described complication of this anomaly with aortic valve regurgitation (AR). We have performed aortic valve replacement (AVR) in a case of C-TGA associated with AR which had been evaluated the grade of 3/4 according to Sellers' classification, simultaneously done the valve replacement for the dysplastic tricuspid valve and annuloplasty for the right-side atrioventricular valve (mitral valve). The patient has a favorable postoperative course.
