Nikaidoh operation for transposition of the great arteries with a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis.
Multimedia Manual of Cardiothoracic Surgery : MMCTS 2008 January 2
The optimal surgical management of patients with transposition of the great arteries with a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis remains challenging. When compared to other surgical options, the Nikaidoh procedure results in a 'more normal' anatomic result, with better alignment of the right and left ventricular outflow tracts. Also, the pulmonary outflow is less likely to be compressed by the sternum, a major issue associated with the Rastelli repair. This technique is especially useful in the presence of an inlet or restrictive ventricular septal defect, a hypoplastic right ventricle, a straddling atrioventricular valve and/or anomalous coronary anatomy interfering with a distal right ventricular outflow tract incision.
