Infants with previously undiagnosed cardiac conditions may present to the emergency department with nonspecific signs and respiratory symptoms. These patients may be erroneously diagnosed as having bronchiolitis. We report a 2-month-old female infant who presented with respiratory distress and showed no improvement with nebulized albuterol treatment. This infant was found to have anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.
患有先前未被诊断出心脏疾病的婴儿可能会因非特异性体征和呼吸道症状而被送往急诊科。这些患者可能会被误诊为患有细支气管炎。我们报告一例2个月大的女婴，她出现呼吸窘迫，雾化吸入沙丁胺醇治疗后无改善。该婴儿被发现左冠状动脉起源于肺动脉异常。
