Coronary artery anomaly and variation is a group of congenital abnormality of the coronary artery with a wide variety of clinical manifestations. The cases are rare and usually found incidentally, but they become interesting because they are the second most causes for sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young adults participating in competitive sports. The number of cases of coronary artery anomaly is starting to rise as the number of cases undergoing invasive and non-invasive diagnosis procedure. Single coronary artery is a very rare congenital anomaly where there is only one coronary ostium to supply the whole heart. This anomaly usually occurs with other congenital anomaly. The symptoms may be unspecific from asymptomatic until SCD. This case report discusses about a patient with single coronary artery, its clinical approach, and the treatment options.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
