Abstract

Congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries are a cause of sudden cardiac death. Of the known anatomic variants, anomalous origination of a coronary artery from an opposite sinus of Valsalva (ACAOS) remains a major clinical issue and a challenging condition to treat. Congenital coronary anomalies are likely to be under-recognized, as completing an anatomic assessment in a very large portion of the population would seem unfeasible. However, we present a case report with image of a 54-year-old female presented with acute non-ST elevation ACS for which she underwent diagnostic angiography of the coronary system which revealed a common origin of both right and left main coronary artery from right sinus of Valsa.
