What is the life expectancy after transposition of the great arteries

After aortic reversal surgery, if the surgery is successful it is possible to reach or approach the life expectancy of a normal person, so don’t worry too much. The procedure is now very well established and the vast majority of patients have an excellent prognosis. Transposition of the great arteries is when the right atrium is connected to the right ventricle, which gives off the aorta, while the left ventricle is connected to the left atrium and gives off the pulmonary trunk. Malposition of the great vessels, also known as transposition of the great vessels, is a congenital malformation in which the aorta and the pulmonary artery are anatomically interchanged, creating anomalies in the physical and pulmonary circulation. Aortic transposition surgery is a classic procedure for anatomically correcting complex congenital heart diseases such as complete transposition of the great arteries, double outlet of the right ventricle combined with subventricular septal defect under the pulmonary valve, etc., and can achieve very satisfactory clinical results. How long a patient with transposition of the great arteries lives after surgery depends on how perfect the surgery is. If the surgery is very successful, the patient can have a near normal quality of life and life expectancy. So as long as the operation is very successful, the life expectancy can be similar to that of a normal person. When choosing an operation, try to choose some famous hospitals. After the operation, we should pay attention to the maintenance and cooperate with the doctor to implement the treatment program.
