- Abstract
Introduction: Coronary arteries are in charge of myocardial irrigation. Its anomalies are infrequent and its diagnosis are practically findings in imaging studies, being the coronary angiography the gold-standard. The most frequent are the origin of the coronary artery from the opposite aortic sinus. Our objective is to show such anomalies and do a bibliographic review. Cases: Patients from the Dr. Gustavo Fricke hospital's hemodynamics unit with coronary syndrome, whom, after performing a coronary angiography, the existence of an anomalous origin of coronary arteries was evidenced. Discussion: Coronary syndrome leads to the need to perform a coronary angiography that can reveal the presence of coronary anomalies, whose diagnose is anecdotal due to its low prevalence (< 1%).
