Images of Anomalous Origin of The Right Coronary Artery From the Pulmonary Artery.

Anomalies of the coronary arteries -- especially their abnormal origin from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) trunk -- are among the least common. They're also the most dangerous of congenital heart defects with an incidence of 0.002% in the general population [Williams 2006]. The diagnosis exceedingly is difficult because anatomical abnormalities of the coronary arteries are subtle. We present a case of an anomalous origin of the right coronary artery.
