Aortopulmonary window is rarely associated with other cardiac anomalies, such as anomalous origin of one coronary artery. This exceptional association has been reported in 15 patients, with different surgical solutions. We describe 2 patients with aortopulmonary window with anomalous origin of the right coronary artery, one of which presented with tetralogy of Fallot-pulmonary atresia. A neonatal modified Blalock-Taussig shunt and ligature of the distal pulmonary artery at the level of pulmonary bifurcation was performed in the first patient, and the second patient underwent aortopulmonary window division with anomalous coronary artery reimplantation. Both patients had an uneventful postoperative course.
主肺动脉窗很少与其他心脏异常相关,例如单一冠状动脉异常起源。这种罕见的关联已在 15 例患者中报告,采用了不同的手术解决方案。我们描述了 2 例主肺动脉窗伴右冠状动脉异常起源的患者,其中 1 例合并法洛四联症-肺动脉闭锁。第 1 例患者接受了新生儿改良 Blalock-Taussig 分流术和远端肺动脉在肺动脉分叉水平的结扎术,第 2 例患者接受了主肺动脉窗切开术和异常冠状动脉再植术。两名患者的术后过程均顺利。
