| Popis: |
We report on a man without any symptoms until the age of 29 years when a ventricular tachyarrhythmia occurred for the first time. There were electrocardiographic signs of a previous myocardial infarction of the anterior wall, but there had not even been any episode of angina pectoris. The cause was the anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk (Bland-White-Garland syndrome). Therapy consisted of ligation of the left coronary artery and the implantation of an aortocoronary vein graft to the left coronary artery in order to reinstall a two-coronary system. Diagnosis is easily made by coronary angiography. At a 3-year follow-up there was an increase of the ejection fraction/cardiac output, a stable sinus rhythm, and an improved physical endurance. |
