Abstract

Critical ostial stenosis following reimplantation of an anomalous left main coronary artery is extremely rare. Currently, there is no consensus on management following diagnosis. This report demonstrates the feasibility of percutaneous coronary intervention in an adolescent with such a condition and emphasizes the importance of periprocedural multimodality imaging.

Keywords: anomalous coronary artery; cardiac arrest in the young; percutaneous coronary intervention in an adolescent.
