Late coronary artery lesions after neonatal arterial switch operation: results of surgical coronary revascularization

Abstract: (1) Following ASO, coronary lesions are not uncommon and they are progressive. Routine and sequential coronary evaluation is necessary. (2) Coronary revascularization can be achieved using coronary angioplasty in most cases. Mammary bypass may be used in selected circumstances. Normal myocardial perfusion is restored in most patients.

“…It is possible that this is a static minor vascular abnormality, but it could also represent as an early phase of progressive vascular remodeling. 20 Although these relatively minor coronary abnormalities are unlikely to develop into lethal events, we recommend careful long-term follow-up of patients who develop coronary artery problems after ASO.…”

“…18,20,31 Whereas the clinical significance of trivial-mild coronary abnormalities is not entirely clear, some coronary vascular changes may be progressive. 20 Post-ASO coronary artery abnormalities may not be detected reliably without specific coronary imaging. 16 It is misleading to assume that lack of clinical symptoms affirms absence of potentially lethal coronary abnormalities that may lead to myocardial ischemia, catastrophic ventricular arrhythmia, or even sudden death.…”
