Overview
Subclassification of TGA
Simple and complex l-TGA
l-TGA is often accompanied by other heart defects, the most common type being intracardiac shunts such as atrial septal defect (ASD) including patent foramen ovale (PFO), ventricular septal defect (VSD), and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Stenosis of valves such as pulmonary stenosis or atresia may also be present. Tricuspid regurgitation may be present as well.
When no other heart defects are present it is called 'simple' l-TGA; when other defects are present it is called 'complex' l-TGA.
