“…Others have shown that the extent of ischemic myocardial damage is the most important determinant of outcome after a corrective operation. 3 El Oakley and colleagues 4 reconstructed a two-coronary artery system on a beating heart in 3 cases of ALCA. These patients were operated upon via a median sternotomy and the ALCA was mobilized with a large button of pulmonary artery wall around the anomalous coronary ostium.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
