Corrected transposition of the great arteries with a common atrioventricular valve is a rare congenital anomaly. In the presence of two well‐defined, atrioventricular valves, cross‐sectional echocardiography is the method of choice for the diagnosis of this cardiac defect. The presence of a common atrioventricular valve can be a limitation of the method. Angiocardiography provides additional information for the diagnosis. (ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY, Volume 8, September 1991)
