Abstract

Dual left anterior descending artery is a rare coronary artery anomaly. In this case report, we present a case of 54-year-old male admitting with chest pain and type I dual left anterior descending artery detected on his coronary angiography. Dual left anterior descending artery (especially type I) has been usually reported to have no clinical significance. However, it is important to know the anatomic variations of this anomaly in patients with coronary artery disease in whom either surgical revascularization or percutaneous revascularization will be performed.

Özet

Dual sol ön inen arter çok nadir bir koroner arter anomalisidir. Bu olgu sunumunda koroner anjiyografisinde tip I dual sol ön inen arter görülen, göğüs ağrısı ile başvuran 54 yaşında bir olgu sunulmaktadır. Dual sol ön inen arterin (özellikle tip I) genellikle klinik öneminin olmadığı bildirilmiştir. Fakat cerrahi veya perkütan revaskülarizasyon uygulanacak koroner arter hastalığı bulunan olgularda bu anomalinin anatomik varyasyonlarını bilmek çok önemlidir.
