The Coronary Crown: Anomalous Left Anterior Descending and Circumflex From the Right Coronary Sinus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Anomalies of coronary artery are rare but can be clinically significant.

Case summary

Anomalous coronary artery origins are rare but clinically significant. We present a 50-year-old man with an inferior myocardial infarction who successfully underwent thrombolysis.
