A Rare Cause of Angina: A Single Coronary Artery in Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries

JACC Case Rep. 2021 Jan 27;3(2):202-205. doi: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2020.11.044. eCollection 2021 Feb.

Abstract

We report a man with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and moderate anteroseptal ischemia; and cardiac computed tomography showed a single coronary artery with origin from the right aortic sinus. The perfusion of the morphological right ventricle by a single right coronary artery may be a cause of ischemia. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.).

Keywords: CCTGA, congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries; CT, computed tomography; EF, ejection fraction; angina; congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries; single coronary artery.
