Invited expert reviewArterial Switch Operation: Operative Approach and Outcomes
Section snippets
Methods
A structured review of literature was performed using PubMed and MEDLINE databases. The search strategy involved combinations of the terms arterial switch operation, transposition of the great arteries, aortic arch obstruction, Taussig-Bing anomaly, and outcomes. The last search was conducted in December 2017.
