Summary | A dual left anterior descending artery with an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is an extremely rare coronary artery anomaly, with only one case known previously reported. However, that study presented coronary anatomical findings with images and little is known regarding patient outcome following surgical management for this unique condition. We present here the first case report of an affected patient, who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and ligation of the coronary anomaly, as well as postoperative course details. |
