| Abstract: | Coronary artery anomalies are congenital changes in their origin, course, and/or structure. They are the second most frequent cause of sudden death in young athletes. Dual LAD artery is a rare coronary anomaly. We present the case of a 44-year-old man with recent onset exertional angina and documented ischemia whose coronary angiogramand computed tomography (CT) showed type 4 dual LAD artery, the rarest and most interesting variant. |
