“…The surgical management of acute coronary syndrome during infancy and childhood is not a novelty. Many authors have described their experience in treatment of coronary artery stenosis in neonates or infants, the majority in the setting of Kawasaki disease or as a consequence of other surgical procedures such as the arterial switch operation [3][4][5]. To our knowledge, this is the first case of coronary bypass grafting in the setting of Williams syndrome in an infant who previously underwent surgical repair of supravalvular stenosis.…”

Williams syndrome (WS) is a genetic disorder due to deficiency of elastin gene expression. It is characterized by typical somatic abnormalities and a wide range of cardiovascular malformations. Coronary artery involvement is a frequent finding of the syndrome, particularly in those patients with severe supravalvular aortic stenosis. We present the case of an 11-month-old infant affected by WS who developed severe coronary artery disease 2 months after the surgical repair of supravalvular aortic stenosis. The clinical picture and successful surgical revascularization strategy is also described.

“…"Blind sacks" are a wellknown source of thromboembolism from low-flow chambers and vessels [3,4]. Presently, tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) repair in adulthood is rare [5]. Only 1 previous report describes classic Blalock-Taussig shunt (BTS) as the source of thromboembolism [3].…”
