[Abnormal origin of the anterior interventricular artery from the pulmonary artery responsible for a postinfarction left ventricular aneurysm in a 6-year-old girl].
The isolated abnormal origin of the anterior interventricular artery from the pulmonary artery with the circumflex artery, arising normally from the right coronary artery and implanting in the aorta is much less common than the origin of a common left coronary trunk from the pulmonary artery. The first condition is also better tolerated than the second. In the present case, the clinical tolerance was excellent, but there was, nevertheless, a complicated antero-apical necrosis of a left ventricular aneurysm, which was successfully resected at the same time as the reimplantation of the anterior interventricular artery into the aorta. The patency of the anastomosis was subsequently confirmed.
