| | Coronary Artery Disease |
 | | Because the extent of coronary artery disease does not always match the severity and length of chest pain, it is important for patients with chest pain to have their symptoms evaluated promptly by a doctor. | | | If the problem is not discovered, the first symptom of coronary artery narrowing may be the severe chest pain of a heart attack. | | | There are two types of chest pain related to coronary artery disease &; stable angina and acute coronary syndrome. |

| | eMedicine - Coronary Artery Anomalies : Article by Andrew N Pelech, MD |
| | Coronary arteries should be diligently sought in any patient presenting with cardiac dysfunction or in an older child presenting with activity-related chest pain. | | | Coronary arteries that arise ectopically usually course tangentially to the aortic wall or arise in close relationship to the commissure of the aortic valve. | | | Despite the position of the heart within the chest and the position of the great arteries as they arise from the heart, aortic and pulmonary valves normally have a single point of contact, with commissural apposition at this point. |

| | If your child is diagnosed with pulmonary artery stenosis, your pediatrician or primary care doctor will recommend that you meet with a congenital heart specialist (a doctor who has the training and equipment to determine your child’s heart problem and order the necessary special tests, medical care, heart surgery, and follow-up checkups). | | | surgery - various methods of surgical repair of pulmonary artery stenosis are used, the choice of which depends on the characteristics of the stenosis and the surrounding vessels and other structures. | | | Normally, this passageway closes on its own within a few hours of birth, but when it does not, surgery or an outpatient catheter-based procedure is needed to close the opening |
