Objective This study was performed to identify the effects of different surgical approaches on the right coronary artery ostium in patients with congenital supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) and to determine how to avoid surgically induced right coronary artery occlusion. Methods The surgical techniques and outcomes of 91 patients who underwent surgical treatment of SVAS from 2008 to 2015 in our institution were retrospectively reviewed to identify the causes of early death, reoperation, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. Results Four perioperative deaths (Doty’s technique, n = 4), six cases of ECMO support (Doty’s technique, n = 4; Brom’s technique, n = 1; McGoon’s technique, n = 1), and eight reoperations (Doty’s technique, n = 5; Brom’s technique, n = 2; McGoon’s technique, n = 1) occurred. In cases of reoperation, adjustment of the shape and position of the right coronary sinus patch relieved the malignant arrhythmia. Conclusion Different surgical techniques have different effects on the right coronary artery. The shape of the patch inserted into the right coronary sinus should be carefully clipped to avoid distortion and ischemia of the right coronary artery.

Right coronary artery aneurysms are rare and may result from severe coronary disease, with few cases described in the literature. Mortality is high, and therapy is still controversial. We report the case of a 72-year-old woman with arterial hypertension, and a family history of coronary artery disease, who evolved for 2 months with episodes of palpitations and dyspnea on moderate exertion. During the evaluation, a giant aneurysm was found in the proximal third of the right coronary artery. The patient underwent surgical treatment with grafting of the radial artery to the right coronary artery and ligation of the aneurysmal sac, with good clinical course.
