High origin of the right coronary artery with congenital heart disease

Abstract

We encountered a case of anomalous high origin of the right coronary artery associated with ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus. The right coronary artery originated from the distal part of the ascending aorta resulting in unsuccessful induction of cardiac arrest by cardioplegia. We describe this rare case with anomalous origin of the right coronary artery.
