Abstract
Abnormal coronary findings were frequently observed in adult patients after arterial switch operation, especially in patients with a variant coronary anatomy pattern. Neoaortic root dilation and a higher coronary takeoff may explain part of the pathophysiology. Long-term follow-up is needed to determine the clinical significance of these findings.
