Reimplantation of anomalous right coronary artery arising from the pulmonary trunk leading to normal coronary flow reserve late after surgery

Abstract

We report a case of successful reimplantation of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk into the aorta with a 10-year follow-up. The finding of a normal coronary flow reserve late after surgery suggests that direct reimplantation of the right coronary artery into the aorta is the preferable surgical technique.
