Keywords: Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction; subpulmonic membrane; transposition of great arteries
The left ventricular outflow tract obstruction is rare in transposition of the great arteries with an intact ventricular septum. The obstruction may be dynamic or anatomic. Herein, we present a four-year-old boy who was diagnosed with dextro-transposition of the great arteries, patent ductus arteriosus with an intact ventricular septum, and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction due to a discrete subpulmonic membrane.
