Origin of both coronary arteries from the pulmonary trunk associated with hypoplasia of the aortic tract complex: a new entity.
The first case of origin of both coronary arteries from the pulmonary trunk, associated with hypoplasia of the aortic tract complex is reported. Although this is a lethal anomaly, as both coronary arteries originate from the pulmonary artery, it is conceivable that surgical intervention could make this unusual entity a viable one. Possible surgical techniques are discussed.
