Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery in a patient of advanced age: a case report and analysis.
Journal of International Medical Research 2019 April 15
A 61-year-old Chinese man presented with a nearly 30-year history of an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery. He had been diagnosed with an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery in 1989. He then underwent regular echocardiographic examinations and it was found that his heart was gradually enlarging. After a >20-year asymptomatic period, he developed recurrent chest discomfort and palpitation. Coronary computed tomography angiography suggested that the left coronary artery anomaly originated from the pulmonary artery; additionally, the right coronary artery was tortuous and thickened. Coronary angiography showed that the right coronary artery was huge and buckling. The patient underwent corrective surgery of the anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery, aortic valve mechanical valve replacement, mitral valve plasty, and tricuspid valve plasty in Fuwai Hospital (National Center of Cardiovascular Disease of China), and the anatomic results of the surgery were good.
