“…Conventional revascularization, ostium reimplantation on the aortic root, excision of the common wall between the aorta and the anomalous vessel, and the creation of a new ostium at the end of the intramural segment of the vessel are all plausible alternatives. Martins et al describe a patient with an anomalous origin of the right coronary who underwent myocardial revascularization with right internal thoracic artery grafting to the proximal right coronary artery segment and proximal ligation of the right coronary artery, with a good postoperative outcome 10. Repair surgery can be obtained by right coronary artery reimplantation, or by using a graft for this coronary 12.…”

A 53-year-old man with exercise-induced ischemia was referred for investigation. Coronary angiography revealed a right coronary artery originating from the trunk of the left coronary artery, and an aortic coarctation was observed on aortography. A CT angiogram confirmed these findings. Resection of the aortic coarctation and reimplantation of the ostial portion of right coronary artery into its native site was performed, and resulted in a satisfactory outcome. The association of an anomalous right coronary artery with aortic coarctation has rarely been described and represents a critical situation where early diagnosis and prompt intervention are essential.

“…Chest pain, dyspnea or syncope are symptoms that occur in 18% to 30% of individuals with coronary anomalies7. Myocardial ischemia results from changes in perfusion caused by the movement of vessels with an anomalous trajectory during the cardiac cycle, which can cause acute myocardial infarction (AMI) 5 .…”

Congenital anomaly of the coronary arteries (CACA) is a rare situation in the population, being accidentally found during coronary angiography due to suspicion of other pathologies. The individual may remain asymptomatic for a long period of time, making diagnosis difficult. Among the coronary irregularities is the circumflex coronary artery (Cx), which has been little reported in the literature. Thus, the present study aims to report a case of coronary anomaly, characterized by the duplicity of the Cx artery with anomalous origin in the right coronary artery, in a previously asymptomatic individual. The patient is a 57-year-old female patient with hypertension, diabetes, smoker and hypothyroidism. The patient sought medical attention due to chest pain of severe intensity, in tightness, associated with dyspnea on moderate exertion, which improved with rest. Coronary angiography showed left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy with preserved contractility and coronary anomaly, highlighting the presence of another Cx artery with anomalous origin in the right coronary artery, without the presence of a malignant pathway. After hospital discharge and outpatient return, the patient continues to be maintained with home drug therapy using enalapril, carvedilol, hydrochlorothiazide, simvastatin, ASA and levothyroxine. Although coronary anomalies are pathologies with a low population incidence, they can be potentially lethal, especially in young people, corresponding to the second leading cause of sudden death related to the cardiovascular system. Upon clinical suspicion, early diagnosis and treatment are of paramount importance.
