[Acute coronary syndrome due to abnormal fibrous tissue growth after Aubert-Imai modification for transposition of the great arteries].

We report a female infant with acute coronary syndrome after Aubert-Imai modification for transposition of the great arteries. Two months postoperatively, she visited the emergency room because of perspiration and tachypnea. She was diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome by blood chemistry examination. Cardiac catheterization revealed Aubert route stenosis, and emergency operation was performed. The lumen around the aortopulmonary window was almost totally occluded by fibrous tissue extending from the equine pericardial patch. This fibrous tissue was completely resected and the aortopulmonary window was deepened to enlarge the coronary ostium. We recommend a close follow-up including angiography after these procedures.
