AbstractAn anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital heart disease. Among the variants, an anomalous origin of the left anterior descending coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALADPA) is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of ALADPA in an adult that was treated with coronary artery bypass grafting using the left internal thoracic artery.

Left coronary artery compression syndrome is characterized by compression of the left main coronary artery between the aorta and an enlarged main pulmonary artery. A 39-year-old woman presented with angina with dyspnea on exertion for two years. Detailed investigations revealed an atrial septal defect, valvular lesions, and severe pulmonary hypertension with left main coronary artery compression. Patch closure of the atrial septal defect, left coronary artery bypass, and valve repair was carried out. The patient recovered well and was asymptomatic on follow-up. The optimal management of such patients is yet to be clarified.
