Long-term positive remodeling of the right coronary artery after reimplantation from the pulmonary artery to the ascending aorta.
A 53-year-old woman, nonsmoking patient, with a history of surgically corrected anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery 17 years prior to admission, presented to our department complaining of mild, left-sided exertional chest pain for the past 3 months. She underwent a computed tomography examination of the heart and coronary angiography revealing postsurgical changes to the coronary vasculature and severe stenosis of the left circumflex artery, which was successfully treated by percutaneous stent implantation.
