Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is a rare congenital coronary anomaly commonly associated with severe but reversible left ventricular dysfunction. We present an anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery case of persisting left ventricular failure with inability to wean off the ventilator and inotropes after successful coronary reimplantation, in whom pulmonary artery banding enhanced myocardial recovery.
Keywords: Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery; Dilated cardiomyopathy; Pulmonary artery banding.
