Abstract
Complete transposition of the great #arteries (d-TGA) accounting for 5
% of all congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common
cyanotic CHDs. Advances in #congenitalcardiology and surgery improve the
prognosis in patients with TGA, nowadays women who survived the disease
are entering the child bearing ages. Although, arterial switch
operation has been becoming the standard treatment for TGA, #atrial switch operation (ASO) was performed till past decades. Right ventricle

ASO. RV cannot sustain the demands of the systemic circulation and
gradually decrease the function. Recently, we have experienced a
pregnancy in a patient with congenital TGA treated with ASO.
