Congenital Absence of Left Circumflex Coronary Artery
Congenital absence of left circumflex artery is a rare congenital anomaly of the coronary arteries. The prevalence of the anomaly in different studies ranges from 0.6% to 1.3%. Of these, 80% are benign and asymptomatic and 20% are clinically important. We report a 56-year-old man presented with acute resting chest pain who was diagnosed as having acute anterolateral infarction accompanied by el...
متن کاملReview of variations in origin of left circumflex coronary artery.
During the performance of 200 routine coronary angiograms, 5 patients with anatomical variants of the origin of the left circumflex coronary artery were found. The origin and course of the left circumflex coronary artery is described in each case. The practical importance of these variant vessels in patients being considered for coronary artery surgery is emphasized.
متن کاملVariant aortic sinusal origin of the left circumflex coronary artery
Introduction Coronary artery variants are congenital in origin and found in approximately 1.3% of patients undergoing coronary angiography in the United States [1]. These variations are implicated in out of hospital ventricular fibrillation (sudden cardiac death) in young athletes [2, 3] and in increased risk of developing coronary atherosclerosis within the variant vessel [4] and clinical pict...
متن کاملSingle left coronary artery with origin of right coronary artery from left circumflex: a case report
BACKGROUND A 40-years-old female presented with intermittent chest pain and dyspnea on exertion. CASE PRESENTATION Electrocardiography showed sinus rhythm with ST-depression in inferior and lateral leads.

متن کاملAnomalous Origin of the Left Circumflex Coronary Artery
coronary arteriography to assure that an adequate study has been obtained. Failure to recognize and properly demonstrate the anomaly can be hazardous to patient management. Two angiographic signs have proved reliable in recognizing the anomalous artery before its selective demonstration. These signs are a profile view of the artery behind the aortic root during left ventriculography (the -aorti...
