Ostial stenosis of reimplanted left main coronary artery and supravalvular pulmonary stenosis: a case report of two complications of surgery for anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Anomalous origin of the coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital disease. Surgical re-implantation of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) to the aorta is a definitive treatment with a good prognosis.

Case summary

A 9-year-old boy was admitted with a complaint of exertional chest pain and dyspnoea. At 13 months of age, he was diagnosed to have ALCAPA as a workup of severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction and underwent coronary re-implantation of ALCAPA. Coronary angiogram displayed the high takeoff of re-implanted LMCA with significant ostial stenosis, and echocardiogram showed significant supravalvular pulmonary stenosis (SVPS) with a peak gradient of 74 mmHg. After a multidisciplinary team discussion, he underwent percutaneous
