About This File
This 3D model of a heart with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) in a long-axis view provides a highly detailed and anatomically accurate representation of this congenital heart defect. It illustrates the abnormal positioning of the aorta and pulmonary artery, where the aorta arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery originates from the left ventricle, resulting in parallel circulations and impaired oxygenation.
Designed for educational and clinical purposes, this model offers a clear visualization of the structural abnormalities and their impact on blood flow, making it an excellent tool for studying cardiac anatomy, understanding the pathophysiology of TGA, and demonstrating surgical repair techniques, such as the arterial switch procedure.
Ideal for medical professionals, educators, and students, this realistic and interactive design supports teaching, training, and patient education while enhancing comprehension of this complex congenital condition.
