title: Surgical repair of anomalous connection of the left coronary artery.
abstract: An asymptomatic 10-year-old girl with anomalous connection of the left coronary artery to the pulmonary artery underwent successful surgical repair to create a two-artery coronary system with a coronary elongation technique using an autologous pulmonary arterial wall flap. This technique facilitates direct and tension-free coronary artery re-implantation.
