Anomalous Origin and Course of Coronary Artery—Presentation of Three Cases

Abstract

Anomalous origin of coronary arteries may be encountered coincidentally in the presence of unrelated pathology or when these are affected directly. This may directly be responsible for affecting the procedure or outcome. Various types of anomalies of origin, as well as course of coronary arteries, have been classified in the past. Here we report 3 cases of anomalous origin of coronary arteries in different scenarios. First case had anomalous coronary with bicuspid aortic valve with dilated ascending aorta for which Bentall’s procedure was done, while the second and third cases were anomalous coronaries with coronary artery disease for which coronary artery bypass grafting was done.
