had complete transposition of the great vessels with associated pulmonic stenosis
and would, therefore, benet from a subclavian-pulmonary artery anastomosis.
At operation the pulmonary artery, which was approximately the same size as
the aorta, was observed to arise from the left ventricle and in a position directly
posterior to the aorta. Pressures measured simultaneously in the pulmonary artery
and aorta were equal. Alarge number of dilated bronchial arteries and veins were
present in the hili of the lungs, in the interlobar ssures and along the subpleural
surface of the lungs. Because of the high pressure in the pulmonary artery, an anastomosis was not performed. Postoperatively, the patient became progressively more
cyanotic, and his condition gradually deteriorated until he died eighteen hours after
operation.
PATHOLOGIC FINDINGS
Necropsy conrmed the operative nding of complete transposition of the great vessels. The aorta arose exclusively from the right ventricle (Figure 3) and the pulmonary trunk from the left ventricle. The ascending aorta lay directly anterior to the
pulmonary trunk. Both ventricles were hypertrophied; the left measured 0.1cm.
and the right, 0.9cm. in greatest thickness. Aventricular septal defect was present
immediately inferior to the supraventricularis muscle (Figure 3). Both atria were
dilated, the right more than the left. The atrial appendages were normally situated.
Avalvular-competent foramen ovale was present. The venae cavae entered the right
atrium, and the pulmonary veins entered the left atrium in a normal manner. The
atrioventricular valves were normally developed. The pulmonic valve lay posteriorly
and joined the anterior mitral leaet in a manner similar to the connections between
the mitral and aortic valves in a normal heart. The cusps of the pulmonic and aortic valves were delicate and pliable and there was no evidence of stenosis. Three
large bronchial arteries arose directly from the descending thoracic aorta (Figure 4)
and coursed along the posterior aspect of the lower trachea and main bronchi before
entering the hili of the lungs (Figure 5). No atherosclerotic changes were present in
the pulmonary artery or aorta. The ostia of the coronary arteries arose from the two
posterior sinuses of Valsalva (Figure 3).
Microscopically, in the sections from the hili of the lungs many dilated, thickwalled bronchial arteries surrounding the bronchi were seen (Figure 6A). Also,
there was proliferation of the intima of some bronchial arteries (Figure 6B), a nding
which has not received attention in the past. Many dilated bronchial veins were seen

main pulmonary arteries showed the elastic bers arranged in an orderly fashion
similar to those found in a fetal pulmonary artery (Figure 7). This picture is noted
in the lungs of patients in whom pulmonary hypertension has been present from
birth and in whom the normal transition to the adult type of pulmonary artery has
not taken place.

The elastic and muscular pulmonary arteries were dilated, and the
latter showed medial hypertrophy and occasional intimal thickening. The lumina of
the pulmonary arterioles were narrowed by intimal proliferation (Figure 8).

There are few documented reports in the literature of augmentation of the
bronchial circulation in association with transposition of the great vessels. The
combination of complete transposition of the great vessels with pulmonary hypertension and enlarged bronchial arteries in particular, has not been well described
previously. The case of transposition of the great vessels which Cockle
in 1863 had enlarged bronchial vessels and probably a normal or increased pulmonary artery pressure, since there was no stenosis of the pulmonic valve and the
pulmonary artery was larger than the aorta. Also, no obstruction of the pulmonary

demonstrated extensive bronchial collateral circulation by
injection technics. The pulmonary arteries were dilated and communicated freely
with the vasa vasorum supplied by the bronchial arteries.
Bronchopulmonary arterial communications may be found in patients with
single ventricle and pulmonary hypertension as in the case reported by Heath,

which bronchial collaterals were prominent in the adventitia of large arteries, surrounding the bronchi and along the visceral pleura. In a similar case illustrated by

11
Similar lesions have been reported in patients with
14
; these vessels may divert blood to the
12, 13
and in those with atrial
alveolar capillaries.
It appears, therefore, that there is a wide spectrum of malformations in which
collateral channels to the lungs may develop. The presence of reduced pulmonary
blood ow or the absence of elevated pulmonary vascular resistance should not be
suspected in a patient with cyanotic congenital heart disease merely because of the
existence of enlarged bronchial vessels. Catheterization of the pulmonary artery
is difcult or impossible in patients with transposition of the great vessels, single
ventricle, truncus arteriosus and other complicated forms of cyanotic heart disease;
therefore, the use of right- and left-sided angiocardiography would be valuable in
assessing the size of the pulmonary artery, the relative amount of pulmonary blood
ow and in estimating the pulmonary artery pressure.
In the patient reported herein a right ventricular angiocardiogram was performed, but because of the presence of complete transposition of the great vessels
only the aorta was opacied; the pulmonary artery could not be visualized. As this
case illustrates, the clinical picture associated with cyanotic heart disease and pulmonary hypertension may be confused with that associated with obstruction to pulmonary ow secondary to obstruction in the right ventricular outow tract or at the
pulmonary valve. The reduced pulmonary vascularity on the roentgenogram in this
patient was suggestive of a reduced pulmonary artery pressure. The closely split
second heart sound heard at the base resulted from the presence of equal pressures
in the great vessels rather than from an obstruction to right ventricular outow. The
very soft systolic murmur probably indicated that only a small amount of blood
passed across the ventricular septal defect, due to the equal ventricular pressures.
Accordingly, it is essential that a thorough angiographic and hemodynamic evaluation of the pulmonary vascular bed precede any operative procedure designed to
increase pulmonary blood ow in patients with transposition of the great vessels.
SUMMARY
The clinical, diagnostic and pathologic ndings in a fourteen month old infant with
complete transposition of the great vessels, ventricular septal defect and pulmonary hypertension with increased bronchial collateral circulation are presented. It
is emphasized that the presence of increased bronchial collateral blood ow is not
necessarily associated with decreased pulmonary blood ow due to obstruction to
right ventricular outow, but may also be associated with pulmonary hypertension
and elevation of pulmonary vascular resistance. Thus, the presence of enlarged
bronchial vessels should not indicate that the patient will benet from an operation designed to increase the pulmonary blood ow. The importance of right and
left ventricular angiocardiograms in the preoperative assessment of the pulmonary
vascular bed is discussed.

Case 12 Anomalous Origin of Both Coronary
Arteries from the Pulmonary Artery*
William C. Roberts, MD
†
Bethesda, Maryland
ANOMALOUS origin of either one or both coronary arteries from the pulmonary artery is rare. Less than 70 cases involving the left coronary artery have been
reported. About 15 per cent of the patients lived to adulthood and had no recognizable clinical abnormalities;
graphic features characteristic of this condition (Bland-White-Garland syndrome
and died in infancy. Recognition of this anomaly is important because surgical
treatment appears benecial.

the other 85 per cent had clinical and electrocardio-

less common, about 20 patients having been reported. These patients characteristically have no clinical symptoms referable to the anomaly, which is usually only an
incidental nding at autopsy. Origin of both coronary arteries from the pulmonary
artery is exceedingly rare, only seven patients having previously been reported.

This report describes another patient who died of this anomaly.
CASE REPORT
N. M., a male Indian born of a normal pregnancy and delivery, died on his seventh
day of life in the Turtle Mountain Indian Hospital, Belcourt, North Dakota. He had
cyanosis and labored respirations at birth, and these symptoms progressively worsened until his death. No heart murmur was ever heard. The heart was normal in size
by chest roentgenogram. He was treated with oxygen and digitalis without benet.
Autopsy was performed at the Indian Hospital, and subsequently the heart and
other tissues were submitted to the National Institutes of Health for examination.
The heart (Figure 1) weighed 27 gm., and the right atrium, right ventricle and left
ventricle were dilated and hypertrophied. The wall of each ventricle measured up
to 0.4cm. in thickness. The endocardium of the outow tract of the left ventricle was
mildly but uniformly opaque. The four cardiac valves were normal. The foramen
ovale was closed. Both coronary arteries originated from the pulmonary artery. The
ostium of the right coronary artery was located in the right posterior sinus, and
the left one in the left posterior pulmonic sinus. No coronary arteries arose from
the aortic valve sinuses (Figure 2); the course of distribution of the coronary arteries,
which were of equal size, from there on was normal. The lungs were dark purple,
virtually solid and without crepitation.
Histologically, the coronary arteries had the structure of arterial channels
(Figure3A), although they carried only venous blood. Sections through both ventricles (Figure 3B) disclosed minimal interstitial myocardial edema but no myocardial
brosis nor inammation. Myocardial bers were fragmented, and cross-striations
(phosphotungstic acid-hematoxylin stain) were poorly preserved. Some of the myocardial nuclei appeared enlarged, but most were normal. There was no periodic

No coronary arterial ostia are present.
Figure 2 Sketch of heart showing both coronary arteries arising from the pulmonic valve sinuses. The left coronary artery arises from the left posterior sinus and
is composed of a circumex branch which courses anterior to the aortic valve to lie in
the left atrioventricular sulcus, and an anterior descending branch which descends
in the anterior interventricular sulcus. The right main coronary artery arises in the
right posterior pulmonic sinus and lies in the right atrioventricular sulcus, giving
off several small branches, and at the base of the posterior interventricular sulcus
becomes the posterior descending coronary artery.

artery stained for elastic bers (Verhoeff-Van Giesen method) disclosed a fetal, i.e.,
aortic-like, conguration of the elastica of this vessel. In the sections from the lungs
there were extensive atelectasis and congestion.
COMMENT
Clinical Features: In contrast to the diagnosis of anomalous origin of the left coronary
artery from the pulmonary artery, the antemortem diagnosis of anomalous origin
of both coronary arteries from the pulmonary artery has not been reported. The
probable reason is that this latter condition has not been considered clinically, and
thus remains only a postmortem curiosity. However, the clinical features in both
conditions are similar (Table 1) and sufciently characteristic so that the diagnosis
might be suggested before death. The newborn is cyanotic and dyspneic from birth
or shortly thereafter. On the other hand, patients with only the left coronary artery
originating from the pulmonary artery are normal at birth and usually remain so
for one to three months when evidence of heart failure, irritability or discomfort,
and respiratory infection appears. The heart in children with two anomalous coronary arteries is usually enlarged (as it is in those with anomalous left coronary
artery), sometimes reaching huge proportions, as in the patient reported by Swann
and Werthammer.

No precordial murmurs are heard unless there is an associated
defect of the heart or great vessels. Frank signs of heart failure are usually apparent,
and these progressively worsen. Feedings are poorly tolerated. The electrocardiogram is virtually pathognomonic in the symptomatic infant with anomalous left
coronary artery,
2, 12
but no tracing has been made in reported cases of anomalous origin of both coronary arteries from the pulmonary artery. Findings of left ventricular
ischemia would be expected. Breathing gradually becomes more labored, and life
ends before two weeks have elapsed.
Pathologic Features: At autopsy, the ventricles, particularly the left one, are typically dilated and hypertrophied, and the endocardium of the left ventricle may be
thickened. The coronary arteries, which arise from the right and left sinuses of the
pulmonic valve (the anterior sinus being the noncoronary one), are normally distributed. Histologically, they may have the same morphologic features herein described;
