A member asked:
What is transposition of greater arteries? is it possible to cure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: When the main blood vessels originate from the wrong ventricles, you have transposition. The original treatment was mixing the blood before the ventricles, then switching the atrial flow, and finally, the arterial switch procedure. The last is the long term cure.
