%X D-transposition of the great arteries (TGA) or TGA-type double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) may be treated with the arterial switch operation (ASO), Rastelli, R¨¦paration ¨¤ l¡¯Etage Ventriculaire (REV), or Nikaidoh procedures. We evaluated midterm results of these techniques. We retrospectively reviewed 42 cases of anatomic repair from 2005 to 2014 at our institution for TGA (n = 29) or TGA-type DORV (n = 13) with VSD and LVOTO. We analyzed outcomes (mortality, reoperation, residual/recurrent LVOT peak gradient ¡Ý20 mm Hg, right ventricular outflow tract [RVOT] peak gradient ¡Ý40 mm Hg) and performed a risk analysis. Mean follow-up was 5.77 ¡À 3.08 years. Seventeen (40.5%) patients had an ASO with (n = 4) or without (n = 13) LVOTO resection. The Rastelli, REV, and Nikaidoh procedures were used in 14 (33%), 5 (12%), and 6 (14%) patients, respectively. There were no mortalities or moderate aortic insufficiency at last follow-up. Three (9%) patients developed LVOT gradient ¡Ý20 mm Hg, while nine (21.4%) patients had RVOT obstruction. Reoperations included RVOT/pulmonary artery reoperation (n = 10; 23.8%) and LVOT reoperation (n = 1; 2.5%). Freedom from reoperation was 84% ¡À 6% and 75% ¡À 9% at one and three years, respectively, for the entire cohort with no differences between groups by type of operation (log-rank P = .64). The Nikaidoh procedure compared favorably to all other techniques in terms of reoperation (n = 0/6; 0% vs n = 13/36; 36%; P = .08). Midterm outcomes after anatomic repair for TGA or TGA-type DORV with LVOTO and VSD are excellent but vary by surgical technique. The Nikaidoh procedure seems to compare favorably to the other techniques
