Arterial switch operation without coronary translocation: mid-term results.

We innovated a technique of arterial switch operation without coronary translocation in 1995, which avoids problems related to coronary artery translocation with good mid-term results. It is a better alternative for surgeons who are not well versed with coronary translocation of conventional arterial switch operation and with difficult coronary anatomy. This report deals with the mid-term results of our new technique.
