A 52-year-old woman was evaluated for chest discomfort and dyspnea on exertion. Coronary angiography demonstrated an anomalous connection between the left circumflex artery and the right pulmonary artery. Successful repair was achieved under cardiopulmonary bypass, and the patient became completely symptom-free.

Pulmonary arterial sling (PAS) is a relatively rare congenital anomaly in which left pulmonary artery branch originates abnormally from the right pulmonary artery, eventually resulting with respiratory symptoms, due to airway obstruction. In this report, we present a PAS in a neonate who showed progressive respiratory distress in the second week following delivery. At 25 days of age, the patient underwent total surgical correction of the anomaly, during which left pulmonary artery reimplantation to main pulmonary artery without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass was employed. Following an uneventful recovery, the patient was discharged eighteen days after surgery.

We describe a two-year-old African girl with late diagnosis of unusual case of common arterial trunk with two separate pulmonary artery branch origins from the ascending aorta, hypoplastic right pulmonary artery that becomes atretic and reconstitutes at hilum, and three aortopulmonary collaterals providing right lung blood supply. She underwent single-stage intracardiac repair and unifocalization of collaterals.

AbstractA fistula from the pulmonary artery to the left atrium is a very rare congenital anomaly. The communication, almost exclusively arising from the right pulmonary artery, may give rise to a variety of symptoms with cyanosis as the predominant sign. To our knowledge only seven neonates have been reported with this anomaly, and five of them died postoperatively. We present another two neonates with such a fistula which was closed by simple ligation using a transsternal approach and cardiopulmonary bypass. Both patients had an uneventful postoperative course and are alive and well at the age of two and three years, respectively.
