Super-dominant right coronary artery, absent left circumflex artery and left anterior descending artery arising from right coronary sinus

چکیده
Coronary artery anomalies are a diverse group of congenital disorders whose manifestations and pathophysiological mechanisms are highly variable, with a global incidence of 5.64% [1]. The classification of coronary anomalies is based on the abnormalities seen in one or more site of origin, course, termination and branches of the major coronary arteries. Some of these anomalies are common, while others are rare, like super-dominant right coronary artery (RCA) and left anterior descending artery (LAD) arising from the right coronary sinus [1].

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 کاملClinical Implications of Congenital Absence of Circumflex Coronary Artery
Introduction: Coronary artery anomalies are rare clinical entities reported in 0.6% to 5.6% of diagnostic coronary angiographies. Anomalous origins of coronary arteries from distal segments are rarely reported. Presented herein is a coronary anomaly in which the circumflex artery (CX) originated as a continuation of the posterolateral branch of the right coronary artery (RCA) w...
متن کاملAssociation Between Left Anterior Descending Artery Length with Coronary Artery Dominance: An Angiographic Study
Introduction: Although left anterior descending (LAD) artery supplies a large portion of the myocardium, the amount of blood supply provided by LAD is depended on the length of the LAD. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the association between coronary artery dominance and LAD anatomic types in patients with normal epicardial coronary arteries. Methods:...
متن کاملPercutaneous Coronary Intervention in Chronic Total Occlusion of Anomalous Right Coronary Artery
Chronic total occlusion of an anomalous right coronary artery arising from left coronary sinus is uncommon. We are describing a case of a 71 years old patient presented with severe chest pain along with exertional dyspnea with an inferior wall myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography showed anomalous right coronary artery originating from left coronary sinus having chronic total occlusion in...
متن کاملPercutaneous intervention in a patient with a single coronary artery arising from the right coronary sinus of valsalva.
A single coronary artery (SCA) arising from the sinus of Valsalva and supplying the entire heart is a rare congenital anomaly. According to the modified Lipton's classification, R-1 is by far the most rare subtype of SCA, with an incidence of 0.0008% in patients undergoing coronary angiography. We present a case with an unreported anomaly, classified as Lipton R-I subtype, which initially follo...
