Anomalous aortic origin of the right coronary artery from the left aortic sinus is a rare congenital anomaly that is generally repaired during adolescence when the condition is associated with symptoms. It is rarely diagnosed in infancy. Similarly, a quadricuspid pulmonary valve is also a rare finding, and there are scant data to evaluate whether this malformation of the pulmonary valve is suitable to be used for a Ross operation. This report describes a case in which both these anomalies coexisted in an infant who underwent a successful Ross-Konno operation.
