Coronary sinus unroofing associated with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries: a case report.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is a rare congenital heart defect that is frequently associated with ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and valvular abnormalities. Advanced cardiac imaging techniques are often needed for early detection and detailed study of potential complications during long-term follow-up in these patients.

Case summary

A 20-year-old male, asymptomatic during regular follow-ups, with ccTGA, restrictive subpulmonary VSD, and mild pulmonary stenosis. Latest outpatient evaluations showed progressive biventricular dilation, particularly in the subpulmonary left ventricle. Advanced cardiac imaging, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), identified an imbalance in flow between pulmonary and systemic circulations
