Clinical Implications of Congenital Absence of Circumflex Coronary Artery [PDF]

open access: yesHospital Practices and Research, 2017
Introduction: Coronary artery anomalies are rare clinical entities reported in 0.6% to 5.6% of diagnostic coronary angiographies. Anomalous origins of coronary arteries from distal segments are rarely reported.

Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...

Rare Presentation of Myocardial Ischemia in a Patient with an Anomalous Right Coronary Artery

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Students, 2023
BACKGROUND: Coronary anomalies are coronary patterns that occur rarely in the general population. The most common type of these anomalies is the emergence of the right coronary artery (RCA) from the left coronary sinus, which in most patients is either ...

Photogrammetric Reconstruction of 3D Human Anatomical Structures and Augmented Reality via Smartphone Technology

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limited access to cadavers necessitates the availability of digital resources for anatomy education. Smartphone‐based photogrammetry offers a promising solution for creating three‐dimensional (3D) and augmented reality (AR) models. This study compared two mobile photogrammetry applications (Qlone and Polycam) that have been used in modern ...

Two genetic variants in NEXN and ABCC6 genes found in a patient with right coronary artery to right ventricle fistula combined with giant coronary aneurysm and patent ductus arteriosus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
ObjectiveCoronary artery fistula, defined as communication between a coronary artery and a great vessel or a cardiac chamber, is a relatively rare anomaly with an estimated incidence of 0.002% in the general population.

The Role of MDCT Coronary Angiography in the Detection of Benign Varieties and Anomalies of Coronary Blood Vessels—A Narrative Review

open access: yesMedicina
Coronary arteries may vary in quantity, point of origin, or course. These variations fall under the category of anatomical variants/anomalies of the coronary arteries, representing congenital abnormalities of the coronary vascular system. Generally, they are benign, asymptomatic, and identified inadvertently during coronary angiography conducted for ...

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Congenital coronary anomalies of origin and distribution in adults: a coronary arteriographic study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: Coronary anomalies should be recognized to avoid problems during coronary intervention and cardiac surgery.METHODS AND RESULTS: We retrospectively reviewed 7400 coronary angiograms to find out the pattern and incidence of coronary anomalies ...
