Anomalous Origin of the Left Coronary Artery From the Pulmonary Artery Associated With Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Results in Normothermia Emre Belli, MD, Régine Roussin, MD, Mohammed Ly, MD, François Roubertie, MD, Emmanuel Le Bret, MD, PhD, Murat Basaran, MD, Alain Serraf, MD, PhD The Annals of Thoracic Surgery Volume 90, Issue 3, Pages (September 2010) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 (A) The left coronary artery arising from the anterior pulmonary artery sinus is harvested with a generous cuff, mobilized and the edges of the cuff are sutured together in order to obtain a preostial autologous vascular conduit. The aortic wall is incised above the anterior commissure creating a flap (or trap door). (B) The left coronary artery is reimplanted on the ascending aorta. If necessary, the anastomosis can be completed by an autologous pericardial (*) hood. The reconstruction of the pulmonary artery is achieved by a piece of autologous pericardium (*). (Ao = aorta; PA = pulmonary artery.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
