Intercoronary collateral flow detected by Doppler colour flow mapping is an additional diagnostic sign in children with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.
Intercoronary collateral flow within septal collaterals was detected by colour-coded Doppler echocardiography in three children with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. In each of the three patients angiography confirmed the presence of septal collaterals.
