ABSTRACT

A four year-old boy with an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery (LCA) directly from the right pulmonary artery was reported. He had been underwent to mitral valve replacement by a St Judes no. 29, due to severe mitral insufficiency, secondary to an extensive myocardial infarction including the anterior and posterior papilary muscles, beside the implantation of the LCA in the aorta. Instead of this favorable outcome, it's emphasized the need for earlier recognition to avoid risk sequelae.


Criança de quatro anos de idade, portadora de orígem anômala de artéria coronária esquerda (ACE), diretamente da artéria pulmonar direita e que, tendo evoluido com insuficiência mitral severa, secundária a infarto miocárdico extenso com acometimento dos músculos papilares, necessitou de substituição valvar mitral por prótese metálica (St Judes n° 29), além do implante cirúrgico da ACE, no seio da aorta. Apesar da evolucão favorável, salienta-se a necessidade do reconhecimento precoce desta anomalia coronariana para evitar seqüelas de risco
