Transposition of great arteries (TGA) in association with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) has been rarely reported. With increasing age, left ventricular (LV) regression further complicates the clinical scenario. Management strategy is not clearly defined. We describe a rare combination of TGA, TAPVC, and LV regression and outline a successful management strategy.
