چکیده

Left main coronary artery atresia (LMCAA) is a rare congenital malformation with a nonspecific and varied clinical presentation. Ventricular dysfunction and mitral insufficiency are expected ischemic consequences in the neonatal period. Left internal mammary artery (LIMA) bypass grafting (CABG) is uncommon because of the technical difficulties in performing this procedure in neonates. We describe LMCAA revascularization with a LIMA graft and mitral valve repair in a 7-week-old neonate with successful outcome 1 year postoperatively.

In some cases, LMCA atresia will coexist with other cardiac anomalies, mostly in pediatric patients. A 32-year-old woman had congenital LMCA atresia associated with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), aortic regurgitation (AR), and moderate pulmonary h...

a large orifice in the right ventricular infundibulum that communicated directly with the left main coronary artery. Severe hypertensive changes indicative of abnormally high perfusion pressure were noted in the distal left coronary artery branches. The clinical course suggests that the effect of relieving right ventricular outflow obstruction was a reduction of left main coronary artery blood ...

Maldevelopment of conotruncal and aorto-pulmonary septum with absent left central pulmonary artery: anatomical and clinical implications.

In a patient with pulmonary valve atresia with hypoplastic main pulmonary artery selective angiography showed absence of the central left pulmonary artery and a right pulmonary artery originating from the ascending aorta close to the left coronary artery. This unusual anatomical arrangement complicates interventional and surgical treatment.

We report two cases of congenital atresia of the ostium of the left coronary artery. Case 1: a six-month-old infant presenting with serious cardiac insufficiency. A noninvasive diagnosis of dilated myocardiopathy was established and the clinical picture was pharmacologically compensated. When the patient was nine months of age, a hemodynamic study was performed that revealed congenital atresia ...
