Anomalous coronary arteries occur in as many as 12% of patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). In patients with this condition, pulmonary hypoplasia can be prohibitive in performing a valve-sparing repair, subsequently resulting in various techniques to preserve the anomalous coronary artery. The management strategy is often complex in such a situation. We report on a case of TOF with an anomalous right coronary artery crossing the right ventricular outflow tract, with an unusual course of the right ventricular (RV) branch, which precluded placement of a valved conduit. In this case, we performed a successful repair with mobilization of the anomalous coronary artery and reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract with a limited transannular patch.
异常冠状动脉在法洛四联症(TOF)患者中的发生率高达12%。对于患有这种疾病的患者,肺发育不全可能会妨碍进行保留瓣膜的修复,随后会采用各种技术来保留异常冠状动脉。在这种情况下,管理策略通常很复杂。我们报告了一例TOF患者,其异常右冠状动脉穿过右心室流出道,右心室(RV)分支走行异常,这使得无法放置带瓣管道。在该病例中,我们通过游离异常冠状动脉并使用有限的跨环补片重建右心室流出道,成功完成了修复。
