Detection of a coronary artery anomaly after a sudden cardiac arrest in a 17 Year-old with D-transposition of the great arteries status post arterial switch operation: a case report.

Long-term follow-up and testing for patients who have undergone congenital heart surgery is an evolving field. We report the case of a 17-year-old patient who had an arterial switch operation as an infant for d-transposition of the great vessels and suffered sudden cardiac arrest while participating in a cross-country event. Previous evaluations, including a cardiac catheterization and stress testing, did not indicate any identifiable abnormalities. After the arrest, a computed tomography angiogram of his chest showed an abnormal takeoff of the reimplanted left coronary artery.
