The anomalous origin of the left circumflex (Cx) artery (LCX) from the right coronary sinus or the right coronary artery (RCA) has been reported as one of the most common congenital coronary anomalies. However, the occurrence of double or twin Cx coronary arteries has been sparsely reported in the literature. We describe a rare case of a middle-aged male with acute myocardial infarction (MI) who had double Cx coronary arteries, one arising from the RCA and the other from the left main coronary artery. He underwent successful angioplasty with the stenting of the culprit right Cx artery (RCX).
左旋支(Cx)动脉起源于右冠状动脉窦或右冠状动脉(RCA)的异常情况已被报道为最常见的先天性冠状动脉异常之一。然而,双支或孪生Cx冠状动脉的情况在文献中鲜有报道。我们描述了一例罕见的中年男性急性心肌梗死(MI)病例,该患者有双支Cx冠状动脉,一支起源于RCA,另一支起源于左冠状动脉主干。他接受了成功的血管成形术,并对罪犯血管右Cx动脉(RCX)进行了支架置入。
