Anomalous aortic origin of a right coronary artery: two brothers with an identical pattern
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 January 2021
Abstract
We report on the diagnosis of anomalous coronary artery in two brothers. Following the diagnosis of anomalous coronary artery in one sibling, we screened immediate family relatives and found the same anomaly in the older brother. Familiarity in this pathology is extremely rare. We analysed and compared clinical, echocardiographic and radiological findings in the two brothers.
