A single coronary artery is a rare coronary anomaly. A 68-year-old male underwent coronary angiography for recent inferior wall myocardial infarction. It revealed a common coronary trunk arising from the right sinus of Valsalva and bifurcated into the right coronary artery (RCA) and anterior descending coronary arteries. The RCA, after its usual distribution in the right atrioventricular groove, continued as the left circumflex artery in the left atrioventricular groove. There were significant stenoses in the mid and distal RCA, which were treated percutaneously.
单一冠状动脉是一种罕见的冠状动脉异常。一名68岁男性因近期下壁心肌梗死接受冠状动脉造影。结果显示一条共同冠状动脉主干发自主动脉窦右窦，分为右冠状动脉（RCA）和前降支冠状动脉。右冠状动脉在右房室沟按其通常走行分布后，在左房室沟延续为左旋支动脉。右冠状动脉中、远端存在严重狭窄，已行经皮治疗。
