Aberrant course of the left anterior descending coronary artery assoicated with anomalous left circumflex origin from the pulmonary artery.

We have presented a two year nonoperative follow-up of an asymptomatic 14-year-old girl with an unusual anomaly of the coronary arteries. Systolic and diastolic murmurs heard preoperatively did not change following severance of a patent ductus arteriosus. Postoperative selective coronary arteriography revealed (1) anomalous orgin of the left anterior descending artery from the right aortic sinus of Valsalva crossing between the aorta and pulmonary artery, (2) aberrant circumflex artery orgin from the pulmonary artery and (3) collaterals from the left anterior descending and right coronary arteries to the circumflex artery. This combination of coronary anomalies has never been described previously.
