ABSTRACT
We present the case of a 16-year-old patient with anomalous left coronary artery from the left pulmonary artery requiring percutaneous coronary intervention in infancy who presented with ventricular fibrillation arrest. A coronary angiogram revealed 40% narrowing of the stent relative to the remainder of the left main coronary artery. Optical coherence tomography was performed and revealed an area stenosis of 70% relative to the native left main coronary artery. The patient had outgrown the stent. (Level of Difficulty Advanced.).
