Acquired CCFs may be iatrogenic or post-traumatic. For a CCF to be classified as acquired, it must not have been present at birth, it must not have been seen on prior angiographic images, and its cau...

Coronary artery anomalies represent a disease spectrum from incidental to life-threatening. Anomalies of coronary artery origin and course are well-recognized in human medicine, but have received limited attention in veterinary medicine.

A healthy 48 year old female presented with angina and exerti...
