• ccTGA accounts for 0.5%-1.4% of patients with congenital heart disease. • Patients with isolated ccTGA can remain undiagnosed for decades. • Very rarely, patients with ccTGA develop symptomatic AS. • Management of severe AS in patients with ccTGA presents unique challenges. • Transcatheter options are limited due to the unique anatomy.

• Severe progressive PR and TR in adults without histories of cardiac surgery is rare. • Carcinoid heart disease is an important differential in isolated PR and TR. • Three-dimensional TTE is helpful in identifying morphologic abnormalities of the PV. • CCT and cardiovascular magnetic resonance also help evaluate structures near the PV.
