Intermediate-term outcomes of the arterial switch operation for transposition of great arteries in neonates: Alive but well?

Transposition of great arteries, including complex types, can be corrected with low surgical risk and good intermediate survival; however, neurodevelopmental outcome is a concern. These data suggest that although anatomic complexity may not affect late outcome, there may be potentially modifiable preoperative factors that can be optimized to improve developmental outcomes.
