Surgical treatment of coronary artery anomalies.
In this paper, we review literature from June 1990 through May 1991.  We discuss normal anatomy and physiology of the proximal coronary arteries, anomalous origin of the coronary arteries from an inappropriate aortic sinus, and anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.  Other topics reviewed include coronary arteriovenous fistulas, coronary anomalies in left-sided heart syndrome and pulmonary atresia with intact interventricular septum, coronary arterial abnormalities in transposition of the great arteries, and iatrogenic coronary anomalies.
