anomalous Left Coronary Artery from the right sinus of valsalva associated with Coronary atheromatosis
Revista Espanola De Cardiologia, 2005Co-Authors: Jose R Balaguermalfagon, Jordi Estornellerill, Juan V Vilarherrero, Francisco Pomardomingo, Pau Federicozaragoza, Rafael PayaserranoAbstract:Anomalous origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the right sinus of Valsalva is an anatomical abnormality that is usually associated with myocardial ischemia and sudden death. Although this abnormality may coexist with obstructive atherosclerotic Coronary disease, disease is not usually found in the anomalous course of the Artery. When this Coronary anomaly and obstructive Coronary disease are both present, it is difficult to determine the cause of ischemic symptoms. We report a case in which three different diagnostic techniques were used to find the cause of ischemic symptoms in a patient whose Left Coronary Artery originated anomalously in the right sinus of Valsalva and followed a course between the aorta and the pulmonary trunk and who had obstructive atherosclerotic lesions in the right Coronary Artery. The techniques were conventional angiography, which was used for the initial diagnosis, multislice computerized tomography, which was used to determine the anomalous course of the Artery and its relationship with vascular structures, and exercise echocardiography, which was used to evaluate ischemia in the Left Coronary Artery territory after treatment of the stenoses in the right Coronary Artery.

anomalous origin of Left Coronary Artery from the right pulmonary Artery in association with type iii aortopulmonary window and interrupted aortic arch
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002Co-Authors: Colin J Mcmahon, Daniel J Dibardino, Akif Undar, Charles D FraserAbstract:Anomalous origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the pulmonary Artery, also known as Garland-Bland-White syndrome, usually occurs as an isolated condition. We report an infant with caudal regression sequence diagnosed with interrupted aortic arch type B and type III aortopulmonary window, who was found to have anomalous origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the right pulmonary Artery at surgical repair. Successful repair of the aortopulmonary window and interruption was performed with reimplantation of the Left Coronary Artery into the ascending aorta. This report highlights the importance of closely assessing the Coronary ostia in patients undergoing complex aortopulmonary window repair.

Sudden infant death with anomalous origin of the Left Coronary Artery.
The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1992Co-Authors: Marie A. Herrmann, Miloslava K. Dousa, William D. EdwardsAbstract:Autopsy of a 3-month-old girl, an apparent case of sudden infant death syndrome, revealed anomalous origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the right aortic sinus. Acute angulation of the Left Coronary Artery along the aortic root, as well as a focal intramyocardial course within the ventricular septum, may have contributed to episodic luminal narrowing. Anomalous Coronary origins of similar type have been associated with sudden death in children, teenagers, and young adults, but have not necessarily been associated with sudden death in older adults. Somewhat similar malformations have been reported in sudden infant death; two cases involved the Left Coronary Artery and six involved the right.
