Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The identification of an anomalous left coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery demands urgent surgical attention. Myocardial infarction and ongoing myocardial ischemia are a direct consequence with subsequent left ventricular dysfunction. A modification using a combination of autogenous aortic and pulmonary artery flaps is described, which addresses both the origin and the course of the anomalous coronary artery--until now, a feature not generally considered necessary of repairs involving anomalous left coronary artery arising from the left facing pulmonary sinus.
