Advanced diagnostic systems and healthcare screening programs enabled increased diagnosis of congenital cardiovascular anomalies, including variations in coronary arteries. Single coronary artery is a rare congenital cardiovascular malformation in which all three main coronary arteries originate from a single coronary trunk. In this report, we present a patient with single coronary ostium giving rise to the left and right coronary artery systems, which was diagnosed incidentally with coronary computerized tomography and confirmed with conventional angiography.

The introduction of the arterial switch operation has improved the surgical outcome of transposition of the great arteries. However, coronary anomalies such as intramural coronary arteries, single coronary artery, or coronary arteries originating from a single arterial sinus have been reported as independent risk factors for early mortality and late morbidity after an arterial switch operation. We performed an arterial switch operation using a unique technique for translocation of the coronary arteries originating from a single left-side arterial sinus, to prevent coronary artery distortion and subsequent coronary malperfusion.

During routine dissection of a male cadaver aged about 60 years in dept. of Anatomy at IGIMS Patna a rare anomalous single coronary artery has been detected. In this case a single trunk is taking origin from LSV. Both the coronary arteries are arising from this trunk. Heart’s shape, size and weight are within normal range. On gross examination no other major congenital malformation and pathological changes is detected. In addition to this, further during dissection in other region of the body no other major vascular malformation is found.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Nothing to declare OnBehalf None Background Peri-coronary fat attenuation index (pFAI) has emerged as a clinical marker of coronary inflammation, which is measurable from standard coronary CT angiography (CCTA). It compares well with gold-standard methods for the assessment of coronary inflammation and can predict future cardiovascular events. pFAI could prove invaluable to differentiate an inflammatory from noninflammatory coronary artery status, helping unravel the mechanisms subtending an event classified as myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) or Tako-Tsubo syndrome (TTs). Methods and Results Patients admitted with MINOCA and TTs diagnosis between 2011 and 2018, who had both CCTA and CMR performed during or shortly after the acute phase, were selected and pFAI measured in their index CCTA. pFAI was also measured in a control subjects who had CCTA for atypical chest pain work-up, no obstructive coronary artery disease found in their CCTA and no cardiac events at a minimum 2-year follow-up. In the n = 106 MINOCA/TTs patients selected, mean pFAI averaged for the 3 coronary arteries was -68.37 ± 8.29 vs -78.03 ± 6.20 in the n = 106 controls (p < 0.0001) and the statistical difference was confirmed also when comparing mean pFAI in each single coronary artery between MINOCA/TTs and controls (p < 0.0001). Non-obstructive coronary plaques at CCTA, and high-risk plaques in particular, were also more frequently found (p < 0.01) in the MINOCA/TTs group compared with controls. Conclusions In MINOCA and TTs patients, CCTA is not only able to detect otherwise angiographically invisible atherosclerotic plaques, but its diagnostic yield can be further expanded using the simple off-line measurement of pFAI for the characterization of peri-coronary fat tissue. In MINOCA/TTs mean pFAI clearly demonstrates higher values in comparison with controls, a finding which has been previously associated with coronary artery inflammation. We speculate that this newly-available diagnostic tool in the future may help select patients for new therapies, for example therapies targeting coronary inflammation. I was able to build a table.
