A partial left ventriculectomy (Batista operation) is extremely unusual in infants. Follow‐up data are unknown. We report the findings at long‐term follow‐up in an infant after the Batista procedure, following reimplantation of an anomalous coronary artery. The initial approach and options for management are discussed, along with late cardiac remodeling. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12775 (J Card Surg 2016;31:556–558)
