Different Presentation of Anomalous Origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery in Adults: Case Reports

Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation. We report three cases of ALCAPA who survived to adulthood. The first case was a 51-year-old woman who complained of typical chest pain that was diagnosed with ALCAPA using cardiac catheterization and coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA). The second case was a 30-...

an anomalous origin of left anterior descending coronary artery from right coronary artery in a patient with acute coronary syndrome

a double left anterior descending (lad) coronary artery emerging from the left and right coronary arteries is classified among rare coronary anomalies. we herein report a 73-year-old man presenting with acute coronary syndrome (posterolateral myocardial infarction). he was admitted with typical chest pain, and due to his progressive ischemic changes on electrocardiography (ecg) and elevated car...

The Anomalous Origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery (ALCAPA): a Case Series and Brief Review

Background Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital cardiovascular defect that occurs in approximately 1/300 000 live births or 0.5% of children with congenital heart disease. There are two types of ALCAPA syndrome: the infant type and the adult type. The most infants experience myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure, and approximately 9...

[Anomalous origin of right coronary artery].

Aroutine transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) was performed in a 72-year-old woman with signs and symptoms of heart failure. The 2D TTE images revealed an enlarged right coronary artery (RCA) with reverse flow draining into the pulmonary trunk and the presence of dilated septal vessels (Figure 1). Coronary angiography and MRI confirmed the previous echocardiographic findings (Figures 2 to 4). Acc...
