Abnormalities of right ventricular long axis function after atrial repair of transposition of the great arteries

BACKGROUND While volume derived global indices of right ventricle (RV) function are frequently abnormal after the Mustard procedure, the mechanism for these abnormalities is poorly understood. RV muscle fibres are predominantly arranged longitudinally and thus indices derived in the long axis may be...
