AbstractAnomalous single coronary artery from pulmonary artery is a very rare congenital heart anomaly. Anomalous single coronary artery from pulmonary artery has high mortality rates and poor surgical outcome despite advanced surgical techniques. We report a 4-month-old infant presented by congestive heart failure findings and diagnosed with anomalous single trunk coronary arteries arising from right pulmonary artery.

Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery (LCA) from the right pulmonary artery (ALCARPA) is an extremely rare subset of an already rare entity, anomalous origin of the LCA from the pulmonary artery. Whenever it is diagnosed preoperatively, one should be extremely vigilant about the potential intramural course of the descending part of the LCA in the aorta. Preoperative imaging frequently fails to delineate this intramural course. We report our experience with one such case where we had accidentally injured the LCA during dissection from the right pulmonary artery. Although it was successfully managed, it reinforces our aforementioned point concerning the importance of vigilance in seeking to identify intramurality as a component of this anomaly of coronary artery origin.
