Abstract
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) is a rare form of congenital heart disease often associated with other cardiac defects. The adaptations and physiologic changes in pregnancy can present maternal challenges and complications; multidisciplinary care allows for the safest management of pregnancy and delivery in these patients. We present a case of the anesthetic management of cesarean delivery in a woman with CCTGA with her pregnancy complicated by recurrent volume overload, pulmonary hypertension, and dysrhythmias.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia (ACA) is the official journal of the Indian Association of Cardiovascular Thoracic Anaesthesiologists. The journal is indexed with PubMed/MEDLINE, Excerpta Medica/EMBASE, IndMed and MedInd. The journal’s full text is online at www.annals.in. With the aim of faster and better dissemination of knowledge, we will be publishing articles ‘Ahead of Print’ immediately on acceptance. In addition, the journal would allow free access (Open Access) to its contents, which is likely to attract more readers and citations to articles published in ACA. Authors do not have to pay for submission, processing or publication of articles in ACA.
