Congenital diverticulum of the right atrium situated on the floor of the coronary sinus.
A diverticulum of the right atrium was found on the floor of the coronary sinus in a neonate. The diverticulum was distinguished from a pericardial cyst by contrast echocardiography, and its relations with coronary sinus and coronary venous return were identified by coronary angiography. Because the diverticulum compressed the left ventricular inferior wall and prevented its growth, it was exci...
متن کاملBicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva
Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve abnormality (aortic regurgitation and stenosis), and aneurysm of aortic root and ascending aorta. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon complicatio...
متن کاملPercutaneous coronary intervention of a single coronary artery arising from the right sinus of Valsalva
Anomalous origin of the left main coronary artery from the right sinus of Valsalva is extremely rare when not associated with other congenital cardiac anomalies. In this report we present a patient with a single coronary ostium, with both the left and right coronary artery systems arising from it. The right coronary artery was found to contain a significant flow-limiting lesion that was success...
متن کاملComprehensive three-dimensional analysis of right-sided aortic arch with multiple vascular anomalies
BACKGROUND Right-sided aortic arch is a rare congenital defect usually diagnosed incidentally in adults; it is often asymptomatic unless aneurismal disease develops. In half the cases, an aberrant left subclavian artery arises from a Kommerell's diverticulum; in these cases, congenital heart anomaly is very rarely present. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of incidentally-detected right-side...
متن کاملSwyer–James–MacLeod syndrome with an anomalous origin of coronary artery: Case report
Swyer-James (Macleod) syndrome was first defined in the 1950s by Swyer, James and Macleod in patients with unilateral hyperlucent lungs. Coronary artery anomalies are congenital anomalies that affect a small part of the population. They constitute about 1-2% of congenital heart diseases. The incidence of a left coronary artery arising from the right coronary sinus Valsalva has been reported as ...
