2 Fig 1 (A) A 9-day-old male child received the arterial switch operation for d-transposition of the great arteries with an originally inverted coronary artery pattern and had an uneventful early postoperative course. Subsequently, the patient was treated with digoxin and diuretics for severe ventricular dysfunction. Thirteen months after the arterial switch operation the child underwent cardiac catheterization. Selective coronary angiography revealed an 80% stenosis of the inverted left coronary artery. (B) In the same child, successful angioplasty was performed using a 2.33-mm rapid exchange balloon over a inch floppy guide wire. (C) Angiography immediately after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty without evidence of residual stenosis. (D) Follow-up control angiography at the age of 5.5 years (3.9 years after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty) revealed a normal development of the coronary artery and a residual stenosis of less than 3%. Left ventricular dysfunction had normalized with time. The child was no longer receiving anti-congestive treatment.
