Coronary Compression by a Right Ventricle to Pulmonary Artery Conduit: A Rare but Serious Complication.

Mohammed Al-Jughiman, Maryam Al-Omair

Reconstruction of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract (RVOT) may necessitate placing a conduit that establishes the continuity between the Right Ventricle (RV) and the Pulmonary Artery (PA).

Compression of a coronary artery caused by a RV-PA conduit is a rare but serious complication. It has been described in a few reports in the literature. We here are reporting two cases of this complication.
