The great artery relationship in transposition of great arteries (TGA) is based on the degree of resorption and growth of subsemilunar conus. In transposition of great arteries, the spatial relationship of the great arteries can be variable. Commonly, the aorta will be related right and anterior to pulmonary artery (D-TGA). Less commonly, the aorta can be related left and anterior (SDL-TGA), side-by-side, and antero-posterior to pulmonary artery. Four fetuses with concordant atrioventricular and discordant ventriculoarterial connection with various great arteries relationship were presented in this imaging essay.
