Overview

Patients with dextro-transposition of the great arteries should be differentiated from other cardiac and non-cardiac causes of cyanosis-

Differential diagnosis

Cardiac causes (starts with 't')-

  • Tetralogy of Fallot
  • Truncus arteriosus
  • Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection
  • Other tricuspid valve abnormalities like tricuspid regurgitaton, tricuspid stenosis

Other less common causes are- pulmonary atresia, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, anomalous systemic venous connection. Non-cardiac causes

  • Pulmonary diseases - Structural abnormalities of the lung, V/P (ventilation-perfusion mismatch), airway obstruction, pneumothorax, and hypoventilation.
  • Abnormal hemoglobin like methemoglobin, polycythemia
  • Peripheral cyanosis for e.g. sepsis, hypoglycemia, dehydration, and hypoadrenalism.
