Unusual intramural course in an anomalous left coronary artery from the opposite coronary sinus.

ABSTRACT

We report a case of a patient with an anomalous left coronary artery originating from the opposite coronary sinus with evidence of intramural course at the level of the septal commissure and no slit-like deformation of the coronary ostium, acute take-off, or proximal vessel narrowing. According to previous publications, patients with anomalous coronary artery and intramural segments identified at surgery had coronary CT findings of acute take-off angle or proximal vessel narrowing; slit-like orifice; and elliptical cross-sectional shape. Although further investigation is required, we suggest that the intramural course may not be ruled out based on the absence of slit-like ostium, acute take-off, or proximal vessel narrowing.
