How to do it: repair of anomalous left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) with coronary button transfer and Lecompte maneuver
Abstract
An alternative technique of coronary button transfer and Lecompte maneuver for anomalous left coronary artery (ALCAPA) arising from left lateral pulmonary sinus is described. This technique was used by us successfully in four patients aged 6 months to 3.5 years, weighing from 4.7 to 16 kg. The importance of trapdoor technique and Lecompte maneuver is discussed.
