1 Isolated Huge Aneurysm of the Left Main Coronary Artery in a 22-Year-Old Patient With Type 1 Neurofibromatosis  Margaux Pontailler, MD, Didier Vilarem, MD, Jean-François Paul, MD, Philippe H. Deleuze, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 99, Issue 3, Pages (March 2015) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2015 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 (A) Preoperative and (B) postoperative computed tomography scans show the left main coronary artery aneurysm. The postoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan showed almost complete thrombosis of the aneurysm after surgical exclusion.

3 Fig 2 Coronary angiography of the left main coronary artery is seen in (A) right anterior oblique and (B) left anterior oblique views. The coronary angiography revealed a huge and unique aneurysm of the left main coronary artery encompassing the proximal portions of the circumflex artery and the left descending artery before their marginal and diagonal branches.

4 Fig 3 A perioperative view of the aneurysm, which was found behind the pulmonary trunk. The left descending and circumflex arteries arose from the distal edges of the aneurysm, before giving their collaterals.

5 Fig 4 A 3-dimensional reconstruction of a coronary computed tomography angiogram 1 week after the operation revealed good permeability of the 3 coronary arteries bypass grafts and exclusion of the aneurysm from the left coronary artery ostium. (ITA = internal thoracic artery; SVG = saphenous vein graft.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2015 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions
