    A Shunt From the Brain: Left Internal Carotid Artery Arising From the Left Pulmonary Artery in Tetralogy of Fallot
    (ANNALS OF THORACIC SURGERY, 2015) Idhrees, AM; Mathew, T; Menon, S; Dharan, BS; Jayakumar, K
    Origin of a common carotid artery from a pulmonary artery is extremely rare, but isolated origin of an internal carotid artery from a pulmonary artery with intracardiac anomaly has not been reported before. We report a case of the left internal carotid artery arising from the left pulmonary artery in a case of tetralogy of Fallot. The possible embryologic mechanism and the surgical management of this unique lesion are described. (C) 2015 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons

    Calcific aorta and coronary artery: two cases of calcific ascending aorta and descending aorta
    (JOURNAL OF GERIATRIC CARDIOLOGY, 2015) Idhrees, AM; Radhakrishnan, BK; Panicker, VT; Pillai, V; Karunakaran, J
    Calcific aorta is a disease of old age and is an independent risk factor for morbidity and mortality. Here, we present two patients with calcific aorta at different levels. One with a descending porcelain aorta, and modified Bentall's procedure was done. Second is a patient who is having a calcific ascending aorta and coronary artery. Coronary artery bypass grafting from left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending was done for the patient. The calcification and its morbidity had been discussed briefly.

    Primary Modified Bentall's Procedure in a Case of Laubry-Pezzi Syndrome
    (ANNALS OF THORACIC SURGERY, 2014) Radhakrishnan, BK; Idhrees, AM; Devarajan, S; Panicker, VT; Pillai, VV; Varma, PK; Karunakaran, J
    Modified Bentall's procedure done as part of the primary repair in Laubry-Pezzi syndrome is very rarely described in the literature. We present a case of a 33-year-old man with a subpulmonic venticular septal defect, aneurysmal dilatation of the aortic root and ascending aorta, with an associated patent ductus arteriosus, corrected by the incorporation of Yacoub's techique for ventricular septal defect closure with a modified Bentall's procedure and transpulmonary patent ductus arteriosus ligation. The postoperative course was unremarkable. Early follow-up reports show good biventricular function without residual ventricular septal defect or iatrogenic ventricular outflow tract obstructions.
