“…Types of ACA: The most frequently encountered ACA type was a LCx taking off from the RCA or the right sinus of Valsalva (SoV), (n = 11), followed by a RCA from the left SoV (n = 6), a single coronary artery (SCA) from the left SoV (n = 3), a SCA from the right SoV (n = 1), a left coronary artery (LCA) from the right SoV (n = 3), a RCA from the LCA via the collaterals (n = 1; Figure 1), a RCA from above the right SoV (n = 1), a LCA and RCA from above the SoV, mid and distal segments of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) from the RCA (n = 1), an absent LCx (n = 1) and a RCA from the LCA via a collateral (n = 1). Three SCA patients were already included in our previous article [5] although without many details about AS.…”

“…Solitary coronary arteries arising from one of the sinuses of Valsalva are also frequently reported CAAs in patients with TOF [ 9 , 17 , 20 ]. The prevalence varies between 0.0240% and 0.066% in the general population, whereas these anomalies are reported between 1.5% and 3.7% in TOF patients [ 21 , 22 ]. In the present study, a single coronary artery was found in three cases (2.85%), which is in line with the reported frequency in TOF patients.…”

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Furthermore, the prevalence of anomalous origin of a coronary artery is higher in patients with TOF than in the general population (6% vs. ≤1%). Preoperative assessment of cardiovascular anatomy using computed tomography (CT) angiography enables the adaptation of the surgical approach to avoid potentially overlooked anomalies. Our purpose was to determine the prevalence of coronary artery and aortic arch anomalies in a cohort of TOF patients. Methods: In this retrospective analysis, data were collected from CT reports (2015–2021) of 105 TOF patients. All images were acquired using a 64-slice multi-detector CT (MDCT) scanner. Results: The median age of the patients was 38.7 months, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.39. The overall prevalence of coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) was 7.61% (8 of 105 cases). The anomalous origin and course of coronary arteries across the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT; prepulmonic course) were defined in 5.71% of cases (six patients). In four of these, the left anterior descending artery (LAD) originated from the right coronary artery (RCA), while in two cases, the RCA arose from the LAD. In the remaining two patients, the coronary arteries followed an interarterial course. The most frequent anomalous aortic arch pattern in the overall TOF population was the right aortic arch (RAA) with mirror image branching, seen in 20% of patients (21 cases). The most frequent anomaly of the supra-aortic trunks was bovine configuration, found in 17.14% (18 cases). Conclusions: The prevalence of CAAs and aortic arch anomalies detected by CT angiography was in line with the data reported in anatomical specimens. Therefore, this technique represents a powerful tool for the evaluation of congenital cardiovascular anomalies.

“…Encontramos una prevalencia de 0,27%. En la literatura, la prevalencia de arteria coronaria única oscila entre 0,044 a 0,23% 13 , 21 , 24 , 25 . Dentro de este grupo se encuentra la ausencia congénita de CD, cuya prevalencia fue de 0,07% en nuestro estudio; en la literatura se reporta una prevalencia entre 0,011 a 0,017 16 , 21 , 24 .…”

Objetivo: determinar la prevalencia de anomalías coronarias (AC) en pacientes evaluados por tomografía computarizada (TC) de 64 detectores en el Instituto Nacional Cardiovascular en el Perú entre los años 2016 a 2020. Materiales y métodos: estudio observacional retrospectivo, en el cual se revisaron las TC de arterias coronarias de 1486 pacientes, realizadas en un tomógrafo de 64 filas de detectores, en busca de anomalías coronarias. Resultados: la prevalencia de AC detectada por TC fue de 4,71% (70 casos) de ellos 64,3% varones. Las anomalías de origen fueron las más frecuentes, de ellas el nacimiento de una arteria coronaria desde el seno coronariano opuesto fue la más común (48,6%), siendo la coronaria derecha la principal arteria anómala (31%), y el principal trayecto fue el interarterial (31%). El origen anómalo del tronco coronario izquierdo desde la arteria pulmonar se encontró en cinco pacientes. Entre las anomalías de la anatomía arterial coronaria intrínseca, la principal fue la doble arteria descendente anterior (10%). Las fístulas coronarias representaron el 11,4% de casos. Conclusiones: la prevalencia de AC detectadas por TC de 64 detectores en un instituto del Perú fue de 4,71%. La principal anomalía coronaria fue el origen de la arteria coronaria derecha desde el seno coronariano izquierdo con trayecto interarterial.
