Anomalous origin of the left pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta: successful surgical correction in an infant with fallot's tetralogy

We describe the case of a 40-day-old female patient with a history of breathlessness since birth who was referred to our hospital for surgical correction of common arterial trunk. The invasive investigation disclosed a Fallot¢s tetralogy anatomy associated with an anomalous origin of the left pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta. Immediately after diagnosis, the patient underwent a successful total surgical correction of the defect, including simultaneous anastomosis of the left pulmonary artery to the pulmonary trunk.

Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk in a 45-year-old woman

We report a rare case of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk in a 45-year-old woman. The approach and technique used for selective catheterization of an anomalous left coronary artery arising from the pulmonary trunk are described. Six years after diagnosis, echocardiography showed left ventricular disfunction, and surgical treatment was indicated again. The origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk was closed, and the postoperative period was uneventful, with recovery of left ventricular function and disappearance of ischemic features on stress myocardial perfusion imaging with 99m Tc-sestamibi, performed 4 weeks after surgery.
