[Anomalous left coronary artery originating from the pulmonary artery in infants].
The authors report on examples of surgical treatment of the left coronary artery originating from the pulmonary artery with myocardial infarction to be found in 4 infants and one suckling at the age of 2, 3, 6, 8, and 30 months. The anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery was double ligated. All children survived the operation and two years after the operation they were in good health and without complaints. Electrocardiographic signs of anterolateral ischaemia of the myocardium have decreased.
