A 3-year-old girl was given a diagnosis of coronary arteriovenous fistula associated with a single right coronary artery on cardiac catheterization. The left coronary artery arose from the proximal part of the right coronary artery. The dilated left coronary artery ran in front of the right ventricular outflow tract and then divided into the left anterior descending branch and the left circumflex artery. A coronary arteriovenous fistula was in the left main coronary artery and opened into the right ventricular outflow tract. Under cardiopulmonary bypass and cardiac arrest, a transverse incision was made at the right ventricular outflow tract 1cm below the dilated vessel and the 5-mm oval-shaped orifice of the fistula was identified. This fistula was closed with a pledgetted mattress suture reinforced with over-and-over suture. Catheterization 8 months after surgery demonstrated no residual shunt and she has been doing well.

Pulmonary venous obstruction (PVO) after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection remains a significant problem. Once it occurs, it not infrequently recurs. A 14-month-old boy with recurrent pulmonary venous obstruction after repair of mixed type total anomalous pulmonary venous connection was successfully treated by the method of sutureless in situ pericardial repair and anastomosis of the left pulmonary vein to the left atrial appendage. His postoperative course was uneventful. Cardiac catheterization at 2 years and 9 months after the re-redo operation showed successful relief of PVO with marked reduction of pulmonary hypertension. In addition, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) performed 3 years and 1 month after the operation showed no pulmonary vein obstruction.
