this immunosuppressed population, necessitates further
investigation of the role of CCTA post-transplant [ 94 , 95 ].
CCTA Imaging Related to Surgery for Cardiac
Masses
While defi nitive diagnosis of cardiac tumors requires pathologic examination of the mass histology, CCTA can be used to
characterize masses and associated fi ndings important to diagnosis and pre-surgical work-up and planning (Fig. 22.43 ) [ 96 ,
97 ]. CCTA can defi ne morphology including 3-D shape, single
versus multiple masses, and wide-based versus narrow-based
connection to the myocardium. Tissue characteristics, including attenuation of the mass, homogeneity versus heterogeneity
of attenuation in different areas within the mass, presence and
pattern of calcifi cation, and presence and pattern of vascularity,
can be defi ned with CCTA. Descriptive features of the location
of the mass in relation to cardiovascular and thoracic structure
should be noted, including: intracameral, intramyocardial epicardial or pericardial location of the mass, invasion or involvement of other cardiac or thoracic structures by the mass from
its primary location, relationship of the mass to the coronary
arteries, pericardial studding or effusion, and presence of
lymphadenopathy or other thoracic masses within the fi eld of
view. CCTA can also provide coronary artery assessment for
obstructive coronary artery disease prior to surgery. All of
these factors are important to decisions as to resectability and
surgical approach once a histologic tissue diagnosis is made.
CCTA Imaging Related to Surgery
for Pericardial Disease
Assessment for constrictive pericarditis is challenging and
often involves multiple modalities of imaging including
echocardiography as well as invasive cardiac catheterization
to assess hemodynamic elements. CCTA can be helpful in
assessing pericardial thickness by cardiac region as well as
by the degree of calcifi cation [ 98 – 100 ]. Surgical complica-
tions can occur due to vascular damage related to dissecting
the pericardium away from the coronary arteries. CCTA can
defi ne the relationship between the pericardium and coronary arteries, including areas of pericardial thickening, pericardial calcifi cation, as well as tethering of coronary arteries
on dynamic images (Fig. 22.44 ).

Decisions regarding percutaneous versus surgical
approaches to drain pericardial fl uid collections can be
facilitated by CT assessment of the location, extent, and
tissue characteristics of the pericardial effusion [ 101 ]. A
percutaneous approach may be limited by the complexity
of the effusion due to loculation of the effusion or effusion
tissue attenuation consistent with blood, proteinaceous
material, or thrombus. Accessibility by a sub-xiphoid
approach can be determined by the relation of the effusion
to skeletal and thoracic structures (Fig. 22.45 ). For poste-
rior effusions, particularly in the setting of post cardiothoracic surgery, a sub-xiphoid approach may not be feasible,
while a CT guided drainage may be achievable.
CCTA Imaging for Aortic Surgery
CCTA and CMR diagnosis of acute and chronic aortic disease is well-established. These technologies can visualize
dissection, intramural hematoma, penetrating ulcer, aortic
aneurysm, and aortic rupture. Details of a dissection fl ap
entry and exit site, location and extent of true and false
lumen, dissection into branch vessels, involvement of the
sinuses of Valsalva, dissection into the coronary arteries, and
dissection into the pericardium can be defi ned (Figs. 22.46
and 22.47 ) [ 102 – 104 ]. CCTA can assess coronary artery
anatomy when cardiac catheterization is high risk or
unachievable due to aortic pathology, such as severe atherosclerotic disease with large atheromas, thrombi, aneurysms,
or dissections. Similarly, in emergency department settings,
when rapid assessment for thoracic and coronary artery traumatic abnormalities are crucial and time dependent, CCTA
may be useful [ 105 – 107 ]. CCTA provides assessment of vas-
cular dimensions for endograft sizing and placement important to endovascular aneurysm repair [ 108 ]. The presence
and degree of atherosclerosis, calcifi cation, and thrombus
can be important to cross clamp decisions related to multiple
types of cardiothoracic procedures. CCTA can also be useful
in the assessment of infected aortic aneurysms, with fi ndings
including saccular structure, contiguous soft tissue masses,

contrast enhancement, fl uid, gas, and adjoining bone destruction [ 109 ]. For other aortic abnormalities, such as coarctation
of the aorta, CCTA is useful for decision-making related to
percutaneous or surgical intervention. Characterization of
coarctation location, size, calcifi cation, collateral circulation,
as well as associated congenital anomalies, can be achieved.
Conclusions
The spectrum of cardiothoracic surgical options continues
to expand. CCTA can facilitate surgical procedures and
requires continued investigation to defi ne optimal proce-
dural approaches to coronary artery, valvular, and aortic
pathology. Although the cardiothoracic surgeon may not
necessarily be the CCTA reading physician, detailed
knowledge of the images and workstation software capabilities are essential in order to attain a 3-D understanding
of an individual patient’s pre-surgical cardiothoracic anatomy. Viewing modalities and presentations intuitive to the
surgical approach are being advanced with 3-D printing of
individualized heart models from CCTA data for surgical
planning [ 110 – 114 ]. A close working relationship between
the imager, interventional cardiologist and surgeon and
presentation of relevant pre- surgical images to the multidisciplinary team are import to the comprehensive utilization of data to defi ne approaches to particular cardiovascular
disease processes.

arising from a separate ostium with a subsequent intramyocardial
course and a retroaortic circumfl ex arising off of the coronary artery.
3-D reconstructions ( upper panels ) demonstrate the left anterior
descending coronary artery arising just anterior and cranial to the right
coronary artery arising from a separate ostium off of the right coronary
sinus. The circumfl ex coronary artery arises off of the right coronary
artery and courses retroaortic, terminating in obtuse marginal branches.

Fig. 22.28 Right coronary artery arising with a high takeoff from a
separate ostium on the left coronary sinus with an interarterial course.
3-D reconstructions ( upper panels ) demonstrate anomalous takeoff of
the right coronary artery from the superior portion of the left coronary
sinus with an interarterial course between the aorta and the pulmonary
artery. Two-D double oblique thick maximum intensity projection
views ( lower panels ) show the interarterial course and the slit-like ori-
fi ce of the right coronary artery. Due to symptoms of exertional syncope
and high risk anatomy, surgical treatment was recommended. A minimally invasive unroofi ng of the artery was performed, with the aorta
opened in an oblique fashion and incised following the track of the right
coronary artery as it coursed through the intramural portion of the aorta
for 1.5 cm, allowing correction of the slit like orifi ce and rerouting of
the interarterial course without the need for sternotomy in an athlete.

ostium had an extremely short course, re-implantation of the LM was
performed. Panel ( b ) The 3D views show the minimally invasive surgical

pulmonic valve. The remainder of the left anterior descending artery
followed a normal course without evidence of stenosis. The coronary
artery origins were normal. There was no evidence of obstructive coronary artery disease. An incidental wide- mouthed saccular aneurysm of
the descending thoracic aorta at the level of the left atrium is seen in the

descending coronary artery to the right ventricular outfl ow tract with
history of Tetralogy of Fallot repair. 3-D reconstructions ( upper panels )
show a large caliber and tortuous left main coronary artery with a posterior and cranial takeoff. A fi stula from a septal branch of the left anterior
descending coronary artery terminates in the right ventricular infundibulum. After takeoff of the fi stula, the left anterior descending coronary
artery continues as a normal caliber vessel along the anterior interventricular groove. 2-D double oblique thick maximum intensity projection
views ( lower panels ) demonstrate the termination of the fi stula into the
posterior aspect of the right ventricular outfl ow tract. Portions of the
right coronary artery coursed immediately posterior to the sternum. No
signifi cant stenoses of the coronary arteries were present. Other fi ndings
included a prosthetic aortic valve with normal leafl et motion, a rightsided aortic arch and descending aorta, and evidence of a prior repair of
a ventricular septal defect. Given these fi ndings, a percutaneous left
