Native Bicuspid Pulmonary Valve in D‐Loop Transposition of the Great Arteries: Outcomes of the Neo‐Aortic Valve Function and Root Dilation After Arterial Switch Operation

Background Neo‐aortic root dilation and neo‐aortic regurgitation (AR) are common after arterial switch operation for D‐loop transposition of the great arteries. We sought to evaluate these outcomes in patients with bicuspid native pulmonary valve (BNPV). Methods and Results A retrospective analysis...
