The Mustaid operation, first performed clinically in May, 1963, greatly improved the outlook for infants and children with transposition of the great arteries (TGA). The event stimulated widespread interest in the management of TGA and ultimately led to the return of the Senning repair and the development of Jatene's arterial repair. Although current results, particularly those with neonates, suggest that arterial repair may displace the Mustard operation, it remains a milestone in the history of TGA.
