Abstract

Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a congenital heart defect in which the two main arteries that exit the heart are reversed. This condition severely compromises blood circulation, preventing oxygenated blood from the lungs from being properly distributed throughout the body.

Methodology: The selection of articles was based on specific inclusion criteria such as relevance to the topic, methodological quality, and contribution to the understanding of the challenges and advancements in the treatment of TGA. The articles were critically analyzed to identify trends, knowledge gaps, and areas of controversy.

Results: The arterial switch operation, also known as the Jatene procedure, is considered the definitive treatment for TGA. Introduced by Adib Jatene in 1975, this technique revolutionized TGA treatment by repositioning the main arteries and reimplanting the coronary arteries. Although this surgery has significantly increased long-term survival rates, its technical complexity presents considerable challenges.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the treatment of transposition of the great arteries has advanced significantly since the early days of high neonatal mortality rates. The arterial switch operation has revolutionized treatment, providing better survival rates and improved quality of life for patients.
