Abstract

Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital anomaly. ALCAPA from the right pulmonary artery (RPA) is a small subset of this anomaly, with only a few reported cases to date. We describe an extremely uncommon association of Shone's complex with ALCAPA from the RPA in a case where simultaneous surgery for both anomalies was successfully carried out in a neonate.
