“…However some of them may present with chest pain, syncope, heart failure and sudden death [23]. Acute myocardial infarction has been also described [10,19]. Extravascular coronary compression results in dynamic obstruction which can cause effort angina as well as syncope [24] and anomalous coronary arteries with an inter-arterial course are associated with sudden cardiac death [25].…”

“…In complex clinical scenarios, CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are often complementary. CMR often allows to define the proximal course of an anomalous coronary artery, but is more limited for coronary assessment compared to CCTA (13,14). However, CMR allows to evaluate cardiac structure, function, myocardial perfusion, myocardial viability, tissue characteristics (edema, hyperemia, necrosis, myocardial hemorrhage, fatty infiltration, etc.)…”

“…There are several reports on myocardial infarction and PCI involving an anomalous RCA with various origins, including an anteriorly displaced origin within the right coronary sinus, in the ascending aorta, left coronary sinus, and LCX in a dual LAD anomaly. [ 4 ] Commonly noted in these cases were delayed reperfusion due to difficulties in finding the anomalous RCA ostium and more serious sequelae due to technical difficulties during the procedures. It has not been established whether some types of coronary anomalies predispose an artery to atherosclerotic stenosis at the proximal segment.…”
