ABSTRACT

El origen anómalo de la arteria coronaria derecha de la arteria pulmonar es una entidad rara con una incidencia del 0,002 % y potencialmente grave, que puede causar muerte súbita. El diagnóstico frecuentemente es incidental, secundario a evaluaciones por soplos cardíacos a diferencia del origen anómalo de la arteria coronaria izquierda de la arteria pulmonar, reconocido por presentar isquemia miocárdica e insuficiencia cardíaca. Se reporta el caso de una niña de 6 meses evaluada por un soplo y derivada por sospecha de fístula coronaria. La evaluación mediante ecocardiograma doppler color, cateterismo cardíaco y angiotomografía mostró la presencia de una comunicación interauricular ostium secundum pequeña y origen anómalo de la arteria coronaria derecha de la arteria pulmonar. A los 11 meses, se realizó una cirugía de reimplante de la arteria coronaria derecha en la arteria aorta y el cierre de la comunicación interauricular.


The anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) is a rare entity that has an incidence of 0.002 % and can potentially cause sudden death. Unlike to the anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA), usually presented with myocardial ischemia and heart failure; the diagnosis of ARCAPA is often incidental during evaluation of a heart murmur. We report a case of a 6 months old female patient referred to us with a cardiac murmur and a suspicion of coronary fistula. For a proper diagnostic assessment an echocardiogram, a computed tomography angiography and a cardiac catheterization were requested. A small ostium secundum-type atrial septal defect (ASD) and an ARCAPA were revealed. At 11 months old, the patient was scheduled for corrective cardiovascular surgery. The aim of this report is to describe a low incidence and potentially fatal disease.

We report a case of a 6 months old female patient referred to us with a cardiac murmur and a suspicion of coronary fistula.
