Anomalous coronary artery origin is a rare, but important cause of cardiac ischemia, particularly in younger patients. These anomalies of origin can be divided into two groups, benign or malignant, based on their propensity to cause ischemia or sudden death. Symptomatic, or malignant coronary artery anomalies are usually described with respect to anomalous origins of the right coronary artery or left main coronary artery. We present a unique case of a previously unreported entity, an anomalous left circumflex coronary artery causing ischemia. |
