A RARE COMPLICATION AFTER AORTİC VALVE SURGERY:A CASE REPORT

Coronary artery abnormalities are usually found incidentally. The most common abnormality is anomalous origin of circumflex artery. Knowing the coronary artery anomaly is particularly important in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. In valvular surgery, coronary artery damage can be found as dissection of the ostium of the coronary artery, compression of prosthetic ring to the coronary ostium or coronary artery itself laceration during the course or during the suture of the artery. It has been reviewed the approach and the therapeutic strategies in such cases because of a complication, and was encountered in one case whom was performed aortic valve replacement (AVR), that has a such coronary artery abnormality.
