ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY FEATURES FOR BLAND-WHITE-GARLANDSYNDROME DIAGNOSIS IN ADULTS
Abstract
Bland-White-Garland syndrome (BWFS) is an abnormal arising of the left coronary artery (LCA) from the pulmonary artery trunk (PA), (in English-speaking literature ALCAPA – anomalous left coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery) and it is rather rare pathology, 0,24-0,45% of cases of all congenital heart diseases. There are infantile and adult types described. In most cases, this anatomic anomaly is found at children or teenage age. We present the observations of patients with the BWGS adult type in this article and analyze possibilities of ECG while diagnosing this rare condition.
