The 64-Multislice Computed Tomogram Averts Misdiagnosis of an Anomalous Origin of the Left Main Coronary Artery

A 38-year-old woman was discovered to have a systolic murmur for an unrelated complaint. Transesophageal echocardiography showed no atrial or ventricular septal defects, but multiple large collateral vessels in inter-ventricular septum. The origin of left coronary artery was not seen at the expected...

description A 38-year-old woman was discovered to have a systolic murmur for an unrelated complaint. Transesophageal echocardiography showed no atrial or ventricular septal defects, but multiple large collateral vessels in inter-ventricular septum. The origin of left coronary artery was not seen at the expected site on the aortic root. The 64-multislice computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis of an anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. Left coronary artery was revascularized with a saphenous vein graft with an uneventful recovery.
