What medications/treatments are used to treat anomalous coronary artery?
Many people without symptoms, especially young and healthy people, choose to have surgery to prevent possible problems with their coronary arteries.
Surgeries for anomalous coronary artery include:
- Moving your artery and attaching it to your aorta or the correct sinus.
- Coronary unroofing (opening the top of a coronary artery coming from the wrong sinus).
- Pulmonary artery translocation (moving the pulmonary artery).
- Proximal coronary artery patch enlargement.
- Coronary artery bypass grafting.
- Percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement.
Complications/side effects of the treatment
Surgery has a small risk of death. Complications include bleeding and blood clots.
