We present an operative technique video of the anatomic repair of congenitally corrected transposition (ccTGA) with ventricular septal defect (VSD), pulmonary atresia (PS), and mild right ventricular hypoplasia in a 2-year-old palliated with a 3.5mm rmBTS (and coronary artery fistula ligation) in the neonatal period, followed by a rmBTS takedown and bidirectional Glenn shunt at 4m/o.

This video provides the clinical background, intraoperative technique, and postoperative result of a 16-month-old patient with Shone's complex (aortic valve, mitral valve, left ventricular, and aortic arch hypoplasia) and VSD who previously underwent a single ventricle pathway through the Glenn procedure stage, but then underwent a staged left ventricular recruitment operation to promote left ventricular growth for future consideration for biventricular conversion.
