There is a significant variation in the mapping of epicardial coronary arteries. This variation may present as different anomalies. These anomalies are usually asymptomatic and can be present at birth. Some might become symptomatic during adulthood and subsequently, result in sudden death. The anomalies, in turn, present a challenge to clinicians during therapeutic intervention. Therefore, there is a growing need to have knowledge about the various forms of the coronary artery anomalies. In our case report, we present the case of a patient who had one such anomaly and provide a hint at one strategy that was used to tackle the challenge.
心外膜冠状动脉的映射存在显著差异。这种差异可能表现为不同的异常情况。这些异常通常无症状,在出生时就可能存在。有些可能在成年期出现症状,随后导致猝死。这些异常反过来给临床医生的治疗干预带来了挑战。因此,越来越需要了解冠状动脉异常的各种形式。在我们的病例报告中,我们介绍了一名患有此类异常的患者的病例,并提供了一种应对挑战的策略提示。
