Surgical management of coronary artery arising from the wrong coronary sinus, using standard and novel approaches.
J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2007; (5): 1171-8
Patients with a coronary artery arising from the wrong sinus are susceptible to ischemia and sudden death. Risk is higher when the artery courses interarterially--between the pulmonary artery and aorta--has an intramural course, or has an abnormal orifice. In single coronary ostium without intramural course, unroofing and coronary reimplantation are inappropriate, and coronary artery bypass grafting is suboptimal. For this variant, we have devised pulmonary artery translocation.
