Abstract
We report two cases of adults who had occlusion of the left coronary artery ostium by the left coronary cusp. Both patients were treated with the Bentall procedure, and both revealed a good, long-term course. We offer proper strategy of perioperative management consisting of precise preoperative diagnosis with a multimodality imaging study and adequate operative technique.
