RESUMO
Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery was diagnosed in an infant girl who had evidence of transmural myocardial infarction of the free wall of the left ventricle. At age 13 months, she underwent a palliative left Vineberg implant, and remained asymptomatic until she was 8 years of age. At that time, she underwent suturing of the left coronary ostium for obliteration of the left coronary shunt at the pulmonary artery. At age 13, she underwent aortocoronary bypass to the left main coronary artery, with end-to-end anastomosis. The patient remains asymptomatic to date.
