Clinical suspicion of coronary anomalies highlights the importance of imaging in diagnosing angina, suggesting necessary surgical intervention.
Coronary anomalies, although rare, should be considered when young patients present with angina. Clinical suspicion and multi-modality imaging including coronary angiography and tomographic imaging should be pursued for symptomatic patients such as the one we are presenting with anomalous right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. She was promptly referred for surgical intervention with re-implantation of the right coronary artery onto the aorta.
