Abstract

Congenitally Corrected- Transposition of Great Arteries is a rare congenital heart disease where double discordance occurs. It may present with associated cardiac anomalies. Children with CCTGA get diagnosed usually at an early stage in their lives due to these associated anomalies. We report a diagnosed case of congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries in a 12-year-old boy who presented with abdominal pain with a history of previous surgery for hydrocephalus. On further examination and imaging, it was found that his shunt had migrated to his peritoneum and coiled. He underwent revision ventriculo-peritoneal shunting and laparoscopic removal of the previous shunt from his abdomen.
