Abstract

We demonstrate a classic trapdoor technique to correct a late-presenting remote pericommissural anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. The merits of the technique compared to alternative techniques are explained. The impact of late diagnosis on left ventricular function as well as on papillary muscle ischemia-induced mitral regurgitation is evident. The child's recovery without the need for a temporary ventricular assist device supports the efficacy of  the technique, despite the residual mitral regurgitation.
