Bentall operation in a patient with an anomalous left circumflex artery: Case report and review

Abstract

Anomalous origin of a left circumflex artery from the right coronary sinus represents a technical challenge in patients who require aortic valve/root procedures. This case report describes a patient who presented with bicuspid aortic valve, anomalous origin of the circumflex artery, severe aortic regurgitation, and aneurysm of the ascending aorta as well as aortic root that was safely managed following the Bentall procedure with the combined button technique.
