The caveats in the diagnosis of anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) [PDF]
Anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is an infrequent, well described, but important anomaly of the coronary origin. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment of the disease can be life saving. However, there are
