Incidence of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) may be suspected to be higher after arterial switch operation (ASO) for Taussig-Bing heart than after ASO for transposition of the great arteries (TGA), as Taussig-Bing anomaly is frequently associated with aortic arch obstruction and subvalvular aortic stenosis. We evaluated the risk to develop RVOTO after ASO for Taussig-Bing heart.
