Congenital anomalies of coronary arteries are a group of diseases that are infrequently found. Their prevalence has been reported from 0.6% to 1.3%. Most clinical manifestations are benign and asymptomatic. Congenital absence of the left circumflex artery is a very rare congenital anomaly of the coronary circulation, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of a 51-year-old man who underwent a cardiac catheterisation. Coronary angiography showed a left anterior descending coronary artery with no circumflex and a dominant right coronary artery.
冠状动脉先天性异常是一组罕见疾病。据报道，其患病率为0.6%至1.3%。大多数临床表现为良性且无症状。左旋支冠状动脉先天性缺如是一种非常罕见的冠状动脉循环先天性异常，文献中仅报道了少数病例。我们报告一例51岁男性患者，该患者接受了心脏导管插入术。冠状动脉造影显示左冠状动脉前降支无回旋支，右冠状动脉占优势。
