Complex pulmonary atresia in a neonate: successful surgical palliation for right pulmonary artery arising from the right main coronary artery.

We describe the case of a 3-week-old infant who was diagnosed with pulmonary atresia, a ventricular septal defect, and discontinuous pulmonary arteries. The pulmonary artery anatomy was delineated by angiography: the right pulmonary artery arose from the proximal right coronary artery, and the left pulmonary artery arose from a left ductus arteriosus. This case illustrates the importance of careful delineation of the anatomy in complex pulmonary atresia before surgical intervention.
