Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the left coronary sinus: case report and review of surgical treatments.
Journal Article (Journal Article;Review)
An anomalous right coronary artery arising from the left sinus of Valsalva is a rare but potentially lethal abnormality.

Furthermore we report the use of intraoperative transesophageal stress echocardiography to evaluate adequacy of graft flow.
