Surgical Angioplasty of Stenotic Left Main Coronary Artery 15 Years After ALCAPA Repair.

Studies regarding long-term results after repair of anomalous left main coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) have mainly focused on survival rates, left ventricular function, and mitral valve function. The development of left main coronary stenosis following repair has been infrequently reported and its incidence unknown. Optimal therapy is also not known. Here we report the use of surgical angioplasty to achieve revascularization of a stenotic left main coronary artery in a patient with ALCAPA who had undergone coronary transfer 15 years earlier.
