[Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (author's transl)].
The case of a three year-old child with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is presented. He had a clinical picture and an electrocardiographic pattern of antero-lateral myocardial infarction that suggested a cardiac malformation. Once the diagnosis was established by cardiac catheterization and coronary arteriography, the defect was successfully correted by transplanting the anomalous coronary vessel to the aorta. The clinical, electrocardiographic and angiographic features of the anomaly are given.
