An Alternative Strategy for Bridge-to-Transplant/Recovery in Small Children with Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

abstract：:This report describes a rare case of complete transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with an intramural right coronary artery arising well above the sinotubular junction. Additionally in this case, the left circumflex artery arose anomalously as a branch from the right coronary. Identification of this anatomic anom...
