Popis: The arterial switch operation with single coronary artery variance is an independent risk factor for increased operative mortality. There are reports of technical modifications, such as the double-barreled sinus pouch configuration, to improve geometric reimplantation of the single coronary into the neoaortic sinus. We describe the novel application of this technique for transferring a single coronary artery with a separate nodal artery emanating from the opposite sinus during an arterial switch operation.
