Case report reveals an undiagnosed anomalous right coronary artery in complex congenital heart disease, highlighting diagnostic challenges in right ventricular failure.
This case describes a patient with complex congenital heart defects and a symptomatic undiagnosed anomalous right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) that led to progressive right ventricular failure. Clinical deterioration led to a decision for a high-risk corrective reoperation, which finally established the presence of an ARCAPA after initial diagnostic challenges.
