Vomiting as the initial clinical presentation of myocardial infarction in children with anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk.
Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk is a rare condition. The clinical presentation is usually nonspecific and varies from completely asymptomatic form to sudden cardiac death. We report a two-month-old infant with vomiting as a presenting symptom of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk.
