Stenosed kinking of the left main coronary artery is described in a 60-year-old man with an aneurysm of the ascending aorta and severe aortic valve insufficiency. An elective complete ascending aorta replacement using a valved composite graft was performed along with a shortening and direct implantation of the left main coronary artery. The right coronary artery was reimplanted as a Carrel-button.
