Anomalous connection of left circumflex artery to pulmonary artery.
A 52-year-old woman was evaluated for chest discomfort and dyspnea on exertion. Coronary angiography demonstrated an anomalous connection between the left circumflex artery and the right pulmonary artery. Successful repair was achieved under cardiopulmonary bypass, and the patient became completely symptom-free.
