We present here the fourth patient in the literature, over the age of 50 years old, with an abnormal right coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery, who was successfully treated with surgery. Pre-operative computerised tomography (CT) angiography revealed an abnormal right coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery. The right coronary artery was surgically transposed from the pulmonary artery to the ascending aorta with the aid of cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and the corrected anatomy was documented by postoperative CT angiography.
我们在此介绍文献中的第四例患者,年龄超过50岁,其右冠状动脉起源于肺动脉异常,经手术成功治疗。术前计算机断层扫描(CT)血管造影显示右冠状动脉起源于肺动脉异常。在体外循环辅助下,将右冠状动脉从肺动脉手术转位至升主动脉。患者术后恢复顺利,术后CT血管造影记录了矫正后的解剖结构。
