Abstract

We describe a 63 year old Romanian female patient admitted to our institution with complaints of typical angina and a diagnosis of non ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Coronary arteriography unveiled anomalous origin of a left circumflex coronary artery from the right coronary sinus of Valsalva near the right coronary ostium and a hyperdominant left anterior descending coronary artery giving off a posterior descending coronary artery with small distal-posterolateral left ventricular branch. The co-existence of a left circumflex coronary artery originating ectopically from the right sinus of Valsalva together with a posterior descending coronary artery originating from the distal end of the anterior descending artery is important to keep in mind especially by those doing coronary angiography in the cardiac catheterization laboratory.
