Summary

Complete transposition is a morphologic entity which exists by virtue of a concordant atrioventricular connection co-existing with a discordant connection at the ventriculoarterial level. If diagnosed in this manner, all variants can be described simply and unambiguously in terms of associated malformations along with variations in relationships and infundibular morphology.
