Congenital malformations of great arteries - what does this mean

Congenital malformations of the great arteries is a condition in which the two main arteries of the heart (the pulmonary artery and the aorta) are switched, causing the blood to flow in the wrong direction. this can lead to a lack of oxygen to the body and other serious complications.

What happens during the disease - congenital malformations of great arteries

Congenital malformations of great arteries occur when the pulmonary artery and aorta are switched during fetal development, causing the oxygen-poor blood to circulate to the body instead of the lungs. this can lead to inadequate oxygenation of the body’s tissues and organs, and can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated promptly.
