Abstract
Twenty-four patients with anomalies of the great vessels in association with a ventricular septal defect have been presented. These patients have been divided into three groups corrected transposition of the great vessels; double outlet right ventricle; and anomalies of the pulmonary arteries. The importance of selective angiocardiography in making the diagnosis of these defects and the associated clinical, radiological, and cardiographic signs is discussed. It is concluded that selective angiocardiography is important in patients with ventricular septal defect, especially if the physical signs or other clinical features are not absolutely typical.Keywords
