Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery causes heart failure and death in infancy. In rare adult survivors with well-developed collaterals, surgical left coronary ligation to arrest steal is often combined with bypass grafting. Transcatheter left coronary artery closure in a symptomatic adult as an alternative to surgical ligation resulted in complete resolution of inducible ischaemia on myocardial perfusion imaging.
左冠状动脉起源于肺动脉异常会导致婴儿期心力衰竭和死亡。在少数具有发达侧支循环的成年幸存者中,为阻止窃血而进行的外科左冠状动脉结扎术通常与旁路移植术联合进行。对于有症状的成年人,经导管封堵左冠状动脉作为外科结扎术的替代方法,可使心肌灌注成像上的诱发性缺血完全消失。
