Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries associated with interrupted aortic arch type A: a case report of an unusual association

In this article, we report the third case, to our knowledge, of a congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries associated with an interrupted aortic arch. This is a more complex and rare presentation than dextro-transposition of great arteries with interrupted aortic arch. The child ul...
