Left subclavian artery bypass graft in complicated arterial switch operation.
We report the successful use of left subclavian artery bypass graft in a newborn infant with complete transposition of the great arteries accompanied by an unusual coronary artery pattern, in whom left coronary artery insufficiency developed after the arterial switch operation. This procedure has shown good clinical results, with interesting follow-up angiographic findings 8 months after the operation.
