    AbstractThe preferred approach for patients with D-transposition of the great arteries with an intact ventricular septum (DTGA/IVS) is the arterial switch operation (ASO). In those patients presenting late, with regressed left ventricle (LV), successful LV preparation is of paramount importance to achieve this goal. We present a toddler with DTGA/IVS who underwent ASO followed by successful left ventricular retraining with postoperative left ventricular assist device support with CentriMag centrifugal pump.
