This anatomical study aims to detail the normal and variant anatomy of coronary ostia to aid in the interpretation of coronary angiographies and surgical revascularization.
Animal coronary ostia mapping extends preclinical anatomy data; leaves open human translation for angiography and revascularization.
Background: Anomalous origin of multiple coronary ostia from a single coronary sinus are very rare findings. Proficiency in the anatomy of coronary arteries and their variations is significant for proper interpretation of the coronary angiographies, assessment of the complexity and result of coronary insufficiency as well as surgical myocardium revascularization. Anomalous coronary ostia has severe clinical manifestation including sudden death in young athelets so taking into consideration its importance this study is carried out to study in detail the normal and variant anatomy of coronary ostia and its clinical significance in the living subjects. Method: This study is carried out in 50 embalmed human hearts by fine dissection method with the help of pointed forceps. We find out origin of multiple ostia of coronary arteries from a single coronary sinus. The courses of arteries arising from these anomalous ostia are also studied in detailed.
