  • Title: Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery: significance of associated intracardiac defects.
    Author: Cottrill CM, Davis D, McMillen M, O'Connor WN, Noonan JA, Todd EP.
    Journal: J Am Coll Cardiol; 1985 Jul; 6(1):237-42. PubMed ID: 4008779.
    Abstract:
    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.
