An Investigation of the Association Between Coronary Artery Dominance and Coronary Artery Variations With Coronary Arterial Disease by Multidetector Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography

Abstract: Knowledge of coronary artery variations and pathologies is important in planning the treatment and in interpretation of findings of cardiovascular diseases. Our study indicated that, although right dominance circulation is more common in general population, both the coronary diseases and coronary artery variations are more common in individuals with left dominance circulation.

“…5 Coronary artery giving posterior descending artery branch is termed as the dominant artery. Eren et al 6 Major portion of the myocardium is supplied by left coronary artery and association of left coronary artery with dominance pattern increases the vulnerability of the heart to myocardial ischemia due to increase in muscle mass and area of supply. 3,5 SUMMARY & CONCLUSION: Dominance can be a significant determinant of prognosis in acquired coronary artery disease.…”

“…Çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi koroner anjiyografi 3 boyutlu izometrik görüntüleme özelliği ile koroner arter ve dalları hakkında mükemmel anatomik detay sağlayarak KAH tanısında başarılı bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır [3,21]. Bilinen veya şüpheli KAH olan hastalarda mortalite ve tahmini kardiyak olaylar hakkında bağımsız prognostik bilgi sağlar ve aterosklerotik plak karakterizasyonunu ve miktarını belirler.…”

“…Because of these different definitions, the incidence of coronary artery dominance varies in the literature (11). The reported incidence of right dominance is 70% to 89%, left dominance 7% to 13% and co-dominance 2.5% to 20% (11,13,(15)(16)(17). In case of left dominance, the RCA remains in small caliber and terminates before reaching the cardiac crux.…”
