Chest X-ray: Transposition of the Great Arteries
The aorta and pulmonary artery are transposed so that the aorta arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery arises from the left ventricle.
Chest X-ray may appear normal in newborns with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and intact ventricular septum but may demonstrate the classic 'egg on side' appearance (heart is slightly enlarged and appears like an egg lying on its side, narrow vascular pedicle because aorta and pulmonary artery lie one in front of the other, and increased vascular lung markings).
