Malignant anomalous right coronary artery detected by multidetector row computed tomography coronary angiography
We report a case of an anomalous origin of a right coronary artery from the left coronary sinus with an inter-arterial course, between the aorta and the main pulmonary artery. This variant has been called malignant because of its association with sudden death, especially in young asymptomatic athletes. Although these variants are rare, knowledge of cross sectional anatomy of the coronary arteri...
متن کاملCoronary magnetic resonance angiography.
Coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a powerful noninvasive technique with high soft-tissue contrast for the visualization of the coronary anatomy without X-ray exposure. Due to the small dimensions and tortuous nature of the coronary arteries, a high spatial resolution and sufficient volumetric coverage have to be obtained. However, this necessitates scanning times that are typical...
متن کاملCoronary aneurysms in Kawasaki's disease detected by magnetic resonance coronary angiography.
A20-year-old woman with a history of Kawasaki’s disease as a child and coronary aneurysms underwent cardiac MRI for reevaluation before an intended pregnancy. The patient regularly participated in athletic activities, and the physical examination was unremarkable. The ECG showed normal sinus rhythm and nonspecific T-wave abnormalities in the precordial leads. MRI (1.5-T ACS-NT, Philips Medical ...
متن کاملA Missed Malignant Right Coronary Artery Anomaly Detected Post-Cardiac Event in an Adult Patient
Aims: We present this case to raise awareness of this unusual presentation of a malignant anomalous right coronary artery arising from the left coronary cusp in a patient older than 50 years. We describe a useful imaging modality and discuss therapy. Presentation of the Case: We report a case of a 63-year-old male with an interarterial coursing right coronary artery arising from the left corona...
متن کاملDouble right coronary artery detected on coronary computed tomography angiography: A case report
Double right coronary artery is a relatively rare coronary anomaly. In this case report we aim to increase awareness of the importance of recognizing such anomaly and a brief literature review of similar cases and possible high risk features. Computed Tomography is well recognized modality to detect coronary anomaly and in our case we demonstrated this as well.
