| Abstract: | Anomalous origin of a coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is a relatively rarer congenital anomaly which almost exclusively involves the left coronary artery. A previously healthy 25-year-old woman had a cardiopulmonary arrest. Following resuscitation, investigations revealed an even rarer anomaly, an anomalous right coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery. Successful surgical repair was accomplished by reimplanting the right coronary artery into the aortic root. The patient is currently asymptomatic 2 years postoperatively. The pertinent literature is reviewed. |
