This video, introduced by cardiothoracic pioneer Professor Magdi Yacoub, demonstrates the modified Mustard technique on a three-year-old patient with cyanosis. A hemodynamic catheter showed she had low pressure in the left ventricle and was not suitable for an arterial switch operation. Therefore, the decision was made to proceed with an atrial switch procedure (the modified Mustard procedure).
