Cardiac arrhythmias following the creation of an atrial septal defect in patients with transposition of the great arteries

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

In 64 children with transposition of the great arteries who underwent a Blalock-Hanlon procedure, pre- and postoperative electrocardiograms were studied regarding the incidence and nature of rhythm disturbances. In another group of 19 patients with transposition of the great arteries, the atrial septal defect was created by a different surgical technique (fossa ovalis resection); this group was studied in the same way and the results were compared.
