Zusammenfassung:Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is a congenital coronary artery anomaly comprising 0.5% of all CHDs. Stenosis in the left coronary artery implanted in the sinus valsalva is one of the complications of surgical repair.

Herein, the coronary stenting procedure applied to a 3-month-old patient with post-surgical coronary stenosis is presented.
