  • Abstract
    Anomalies of the coronary arteries are uncommon but may produce life-threatening symptoms and myocardial ischemia. Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) has become a major technique for imaging the coronary arteries. We present a case of a patient with a septal and a circumflex arteries originating from the right coronary sinus and a duplicate left anterior descending artery. The interarterial course of the septal branch is clearly demonstrated with MSCT technique as the abnormal circumflex artery that coursed posterior to the aortic root.
