Anomalous left coronary artery from nonfacing pulmonary sinus: direct aortic reimplantation

Gopalraj S Sunil et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 2014 May.

Abstract

We report a new technique of establishing a direct coronary transfer for anomalous left coronary artery arising from the nonfacing sinus of the pulmonary artery. This easily reproducible technique was successfully used in 2 patients. It achieves a dual coronary repair without the use of complex aortic or pulmonary arterial flaps and without causing any distortion to the great vessels.
