Abstract

Diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy 8 years earlier, a 45-year-old woman had sudden cardiac death. After resuscitation, the patient was diagnosed with an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery and underwent a successful coronary repair. The management of a patient with clinical features of cardiomyopathy is reviewed.
