Coronary artery anomaliesAbstract
Between 1991 and 1994, 2100 adult patient undervent diagnostic coronary arteriography at the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory of our Cardiology Department. Twelve patients (7 men, 5 women mean age: 46.3 ± 13.2 years) had coronary artery anomalies was 0.57 percent. The half of them was right coronary artery anomalies and others left coronary anomalies andfistula. Associated congenital heart disease was present in 3 patients. There was an angina pectoris in 75% and dyspnea and palpitation in 25% patients. Our findings were considered in our young cases, the most common anomalies involved right coronary artery.
