Anomalous Left Coronary

A 5-week-old child presented with a cardiac arrest secondary to myocardial ischaemia. Echocardiography demonstrated a single coronary artery arising from the right sinus of Valsalva. The coronary artery branched into left and right arteries, with the left artery then coursing anomalously in the tissue plane between the aortic root and the subpulmonary infundibulum. Compression of the left coronary artery caused severe myocardial ischaemia that resolved following construction of a bypass graft using the left internal thoracic artery. Stenosis at the anastomosis between the graft and the coronary artery was successfully treated by coronary angioplasty 2 years later.

Abstract The anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery in the position of a non-facing coronary sinus is extremely rare. The anatomical position of the ectopic ostia will determine which is the appropriate operative approach to create a dual-coronary supply. This report describes a technique of modified extra-anatomical rerouting using autologous pericardium patch and pulmonary artery flap to create a neo-composite coronary trunk passing anterior to the right ventricular outflow tract.
