Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery: significance of associated intracardiac defects. 1985

C M Cottrill, and D Davis, and M McMillen, and W N O'Connor, and J A Noonan, and E P Todd

Two patients with anomalous origin of the left main coronary artery from the pulmonary artery had an associated defect (one, critical pulmonary stenosis; the other, ventricular septal defect). They presented with signs and symptoms of the associated defect and the coronary anomaly was unrecognized. Both cases at autopsy lacked the usual large right coronary artery seen with this anomaly. The pathophysiologic features of the combined defects are described, their differences from the isolated anomaly are noted and their relation to surgery is discussed.

D011666 Pulmonary Valve Stenosis The pathologic narrowing of the orifice of the PULMONARY VALVE. This lesion restricts blood outflow from the RIGHT VENTRICLE to the PULMONARY ARTERY. When the trileaflet valve is fused into an imperforate membrane, the blockage is complete.
