Left main coronary artery stenting in a neonate after arterial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries.

Anatomical correction of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with an intramural coronary artery is associated with high risk of coronary complications such as vessel injury and stenosis. Here, we report on a case of left main coronary artery stenting in a neonate with single coronary artery after repair for TGA.

Reverse subclavian flap repair and maintenance of antegrade blood flow within the left subclavian artery in neonates with aortic coarctation and distal arch hypoplasia.

Surgical palliation for aortic coarctation with aortic arch hypoplasia in neonates and infants has been used in the clinic as the most beneficial treatment for this disorder. This technique allows the correction of aortic coarctation by the use of "extended" anastomosis without cardiopulmonary bypass, which expands the hypoplastic distal aortic arch via the use of a reverse subclavian flap repair. This technique maintains antegrade blood flow within the left subclavian artery.

40 children aged from 12 to 17 years have been observed. All the children have been divided into three groups. The first group consisted of children with mild severity of joint hypermobility.
