abstract

  • An infant with hypoplastic left heart syndrome presented for surgical repair at 9 months of age, the ductus having remained open in the presence of a restrictive atrial septal defect. In addition, an anomalous left coronary artery originating from the right pulmonary artery was found. After preliminary blade/balloon atrial septostomy, a successful modified Norwood procedure with concomitant reimplantation of the anomalous coronary artery was performed.
