Utilization of cardiac graft with single coronary artery for orthotopic heart transplantation

BACKGROUND: Anomalous coronary arteries arise in a small subset of the population, with each configuration conveying a varying degree of long-term risk. The utilization of cardiac grafts with these anomalies have not been well described. CASE PRESENTATION: An anomalous single coronary artery with th...

description BACKGROUND: Anomalous coronary arteries arise in a small subset of the population, with each configuration conveying a varying degree of long-term risk. The utilization of cardiac grafts with these anomalies have not been well described. CASE PRESENTATION: An anomalous single coronary artery with the left main coronary artery arising from the right coronary ostium was discovered in a 40-year old male evaluated for cardiac donation. After evaluation, this heart was successfully procured and utilized for orthotopic heart transplantation. CONCLUSION: In this report, we demonstrate that in select cases, a cardiac graft with single coronary artery anatomy can be successfully procured and transplanted with excellent outcomes. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13019-022-02035-x.
