Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) represent one of the most confusing topic in cardiology and affect approximately 1% of the general population. Although some anomalies seem to be only anatomical curiosities, others may sometimes have fatal consequences. This review describes the anatomical characteristics of main CAAs and focuses on the pathophysiological mechanisms by which CAAs may cause a pathological state. The last section describes these therapeutical options of this congenital disorders.
冠状动脉异常(CAAs)是心脏病学中最令人困惑的话题之一,大约影响1%的普通人群。虽然有些异常似乎只是解剖学上的奇特性,但其他异常有时可能会产生致命后果。本综述描述了主要冠状动脉异常的解剖特征,并着重探讨冠状动脉异常可能导致病理状态的病理生理机制。最后一部分描述了这种先天性疾病的治疗选择。
