Anomalous origin of left main cononary artery from anterior sinus of Valsalva with myocardial infarction

DA Murphy, DL Roy, M Sohal and BM Chandler

The origin of the left main coronary artery, or its branches, from the right or anterior sinus of Valsalva is a recognized congenital anomaly. The origin of the entire left main coronary artery from a separate ostium in the right sinus of Valsalva and its course to the right and behind the ascending aorta, in a living patient without associated congenital heart disease, has not been described. This anomaly was recognized as the cause of an anterior myocardial infarction in a 12- year-old girl, and it is the subject of this case report.
