Balloon angioplasty of a tissue conduit stenosis after surgical repair of anomalous left coronary artery.
Surgical correction of anomalous coronary arteries may result in late conduit or anastamotic stenosis. In this case report, we describe the use of coronary angioplasty to dilate a stenosis at the aortic ostium of an intrapulmonary tunnel created to correct an anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.
