A case is presented in which a man with anomalous coronary artery anatomy and thrombotic oronary stenoses had an episode of syncope. Further subsequent presyncopal events coincided with ventricular tachycardia on ambulatory ECG; stenting of the lesions eliminated further symptoms. The importance of seeking prognostically significant cardiac causes of syncope is discussed.

Cardiovascular computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) 3-D thoracic reconstruction can serve as a “virtual patient avatar” providing surgical views for approach to complex anomalous coronary artery anatomy. Images demonstrated a single coronary artery ostium arising from the right aortic sinus with trifurcation into a prepulmonic left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), an interarterial circumflex with a subsequent intraseptal course, and normal course of the right coronary artery. Virtual 3-D CCTA reconstructions were important to planning an incisional plane for surgical correction.

Coronary artery anomalies are rare congenital variants of coronary artery anatomy accountingsecond most common cause of sudden cardiac death in young competitive athletes. A single ostiumcoronary artery anomalous is an extremely rare variant with an incidence of less than 0.004%. Theymay present as chest pain, arrhythmia, or sudden death. Recently, advanced imaging techniques suchas computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging coronary angiography are becoming thealternatives investigation for diagnosis. We reported a rare case of 50 years old lady who presentedwith acute chest pain with normal electrocardiography, echocardiography, and cardiac markers.Coronary Computed tomography angiography revealed anomalous coronary artery anatomy withboth right and left coronary artery arising from the large common trunk of the right coronary cusp,left main coronary artery having trans-septal course, there was no flow-limiting coronary arterydisease. She was medically managed with a single antiplatelet, beta-blocker, and statin therapy.
