A 21-month-old girl with an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery underwent a transfer of the left coronary artery to the aorta wing a new technique of coronary prolongation. Because the anomalous left coronary artery arising from the left anterior aspect of the pulmonary trunk was too short to reach the aorta, a simple transfer of the left coronary artery to the corta was deemed impossible. Therefore, a transfer was performed with the help of a coronary prolongation technique using the cuff of the pulmonary trunk and an aortic flap. The new route of the left coronary artery was established anterior to the pulmonary trunk. Postoperative angiography showed a patent left coronary artery without any narrowing or kinking, as well as an improved contractility of the left ventricle. Postoperative cardiac scintigraphy showed a decreased isonemic area. This technique is thus considered applicable when the orifice of the anomalous left coronary artery is too distant from the aorta for a direct anastomosis.
