ABSTRACT
Transposition of the great arteries is a very severe and common congenital heart malformation in the newborn period. In its natural history only a few patients survive the first year of life. In this review the epidemiology, clinical picture, diagnosis approach, medical and surgical treatment and prognosis are discussed.
