Özet
Anomalous origin of the left main coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA), also known as Garland-Bland-White syndrome, is an extremely rare but potentially fatal congenital cardiovascular anomaly and it often exists as an isolated condition. We report an unusual case of a 32 years-old patient with ALCAPA presenting with chest pain and dyspnea who underwent surgical correction of this rare anomaly. This anomaly was simply repaired by the combination of LMCA ligation and coronary artery bypass grafting.
