Abstract

Transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA) in combination with aortopulmonary window (APW) is a very rare entity and carries high morbidity and mortality. Only few cases have been reported with this association. We report the first case of D-TGA and APW with mirror image dextrocardia which was repaired successfully.
