Great Vessel and Coronary Artery Anatomy in Transposition and Other Coronary Anomalies

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
In patients with transposition of the great arteries, the identification of coronary anatomy is fundamental to optimal surgical outcome. A number of classifications describing the coronary vessels' origin and course in transposition of the great arteries have been published. However, all are limited to operative or pathological case series.

Altered hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 alpha expression levels correlate with coronary vessel anomalies [PDF]

Developmental Dynamics, 2009
AbstractThe outflow tract myocardium and other regions corresponding to the location of the major coronary vessels of the developing chicken heart, display a high level of hypoxia as assessed by the hypoxia indicator EF5. The EF5‐positive tissues were also specifically positive for nuclear‐localized hypoxia inducible factor‐1 alpha (HIF‐1α), the oxygen‐

Coronary Artery Anomalies in Review: Anomalous Origin, Aneurysms, and Fistulae [PDF]

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal
Coronary artery anomalies are rare congenital abnormalities involving abnormal coronary artery origin and incomplete/abnormal vessel development. These anomalies encompass a broad anatomical spectrum with varied clinical presentations ranging from sudden

A Rare Case of Type IV Dual Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Coronary artery anomalies are usually asymptomatic and associated with other cardiac malformations. Dual left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) is an uncommon congenital anomaly with four subtypes.

A life-threatening association of coronary anomalies [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2016
Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the right sinus of Valsalva, even though rare, has been documented well in literature. However the association of this anomaly with coronary fistulae has been rarely reported so far. We report the case of

Short Chronic Total Occlusion Stump Creating an Optical Illusion of an Anomalous Coronary Artery: A Pseudo Anomaly

Journal of the Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2023
Coronary artery anomalies are often asymptomatic and detected incidentally during coronary angiography, cardiac surgery, or autopsy. However, sometimes in chronic total occlusion, the distal part of a vessel is well collateralized from the contralateral ...

The right coronary artery originating from the distal circumflex artery [PDF]

Ķazaķstannyṇ Klinikalyķ Medicinasy, 2019
We report a case of anomalous origin of the right coronary artery in a 58-year-old male patient. The patient had a single coronary ostium originating from the left sinus valsalva.

Hemodynamic Relevance of Anomalous Coronary Arteries Originating From the Opposite Sinus of Valsalva-In Search of the Evidence

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Coronary artery anomalies (CAA) represent a heterogeneous group of congenital disorders of the arterial coronary circulation, defined by an anomalous origin of the coronary ostium and/or vessel course.

Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in an Anomalous Left Circumflex Artery: Search for the Hidden Culprit [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
Congenital coronary anomalies are rarely detected in patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography. They pose a challenge in delay to identify the anomalous artery as well as difficulty in engaging the anomalous vessel. The present case report was
