Abstract
The right coronary artery (RCA) abnormally originating from the pulmonary trunk (PT) is a rare congenital anomaly. Our patient is a 62-year-old woman with longstanding systemic arterial hypertension and angina pectoris. Angiographic images documented the RCA arising from the PT, and coronary angiography showed severe stenosis (70%) on the distal tract of the left anterior descending artery. The primary treatment of the anomalous origin of RCA from the pulmonary artery is surgical technique. Our surgeons opted for coronary reimplantation; 6-month follow-up has shown very good results, with complete disappearance of symptoms.
