Title: Single coronary artery with bicuspid aortic valve stenosis and aneurysm of the ascending aorta: report of a case. Author: Ishida N, Shimabukuro K, Matsuno Y, Ogura H, Takemura H. Journal: Surg Today; 2014 Mar; 44(3):550-2. PubMed ID: 23624612. Abstract: A 73-year-old man with a severely stenosed bicuspid valve and an aneurysm of the ascending aorta underwent valve and aortic surgery. Preoperative imaging revealed a single coronary artery arising from the right side of the sinus of Valsalva and a branch that perfused into the left side of the heart to pass through the front of the pulmonary artery. We replaced the aortic valve and ascending aorta, painstakingly avoiding damage to the coronary artery and obstruction of the sole coronary ostium.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
