What Is The Condition Called With Abnormal Blood Vessel In Heart?

I've been referred to a more experienced cardiologist for my congenital heart defect. I forgot to ask what it was called.... In the right side of my heart, one blood vessel is normal. The other is not at the cusp, it begins above my other blood vessel and goes between my aorta and (??) the other main component in the top of my heart. Do you know what that condition is called???

Hi There

The details you have mentioned gives a clue that probably you have a congenital heart defect known as TGA ( Transpositioning of the great arteries). Although I would like to read your ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY report before confirming this.

Wish you Good luck
