Anomalous Origin of The Left Circumflex Coronary Artery from The Left Pulmonary Artery / 대한흉부외과학회지

ABSTRACT

Anomalous origin of the coronary artery in children is a rare disease. Especially anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from pulmonary artery(ALCAPA) is a fatal condition in neonates with myocardial failure. Among the ALCAPA, origin of the circumflex coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is an extremely rare congenital coronary anomaly. We report a case of reimplantation of the left circumflex coronary artery from the left pulmonary artery to the ascending aorta in a 4-year-old girl.
