Absent left main coronary artery (LMCA) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation. We present a case report of a 65-year-old woman with anomalous origin of the left anterior descending (LAD) and circumflex (LCx) artery separated from the left sinus of Valsalva that was diagnosed by multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography. Our case indicates that MDCT plays an important role in the diagnosis of some rare coronary anomalies.
左冠状动脉主干缺如（LMCA）是一种罕见的先天性心脏畸形。我们报告一例65岁女性病例，其左前降支（LAD）和回旋支（LCx）动脉起源异常，分别发自主动脉窦，经多排螺旋计算机断层扫描（MDCT）冠状动脉造影确诊。我们的病例表明，MDCT在某些罕见冠状动脉异常的诊断中发挥着重要作用。
