AbstractAn anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital heart disease. Among the variants, an anomalous origin of the left anterior descending coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALADPA) is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of ALADPA in an adult that was treated with coronary artery bypass grafting using the left internal thoracic artery.

Anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery may or may not be associated with structural heart disease. Most of the patients with such coronary anomaly will succumb unless diagnosed and treated early. We are reporting a patient with this anomaly in seventh decade which is extremely rare.

AbstractAnomalous circumflex coronary artery origin from pulmonary artery is a very rare congenital heart disease. Misdiagnosis of this condition may lead to inadequate myocardial protection during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
