Abstract
The editorial discusses the original article of E.F. Abbasov et al. “Epidemiology anomalies of coronary artery origin and course”. Editorial stresses high incidence of congenital coronary anomalies. It discusses types of such anomalies, their classifications and clinical significance. Myocardial “bridges” are the most frequent anomaly of coronary artery course. This anomaly is benign but in rare cases when obstruction of the coronary blood flow through the tunneled segment of the artery is suspected, use of additional functional tests (studies of myocardial perfusion or coronary blood flow) is recommended. It is important to note that coronary CT-angiography has advantages over traditional catheter angiography in detection of coronary anomalies.
