“The Clinical nomenclature” is derived from the International Congenital Heart Surgery Nomenclature and Database Project of The European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery and The Society of Thoracic Surgeons.
The “Administrative nomenclature” is derived from the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification diagnosis codes.
For the clinical nomenclature, hearts with discordant ventriculo-arterial connections, pulmonary atresia, and ventricular septal defect are grouped with Transposition of the great arteries, not with Tetralogy of Fallot.
