Abstract

Congenital absence of the left circumflex artery (LCx) is a veryrare congenital coronary anomaly. It is a benign incidentalfinding. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) isthe first choice imaging modality for non-invasive visualizationof coronary artery anomalies. Also, it is fast and safe. Here, wepresent a case with an absent LCx detected by coronary CTA ina 20-year-old man with chest pain.

Özet

Sol sirkümfleks arterin konjenital yokluğu çok nadir görülen konjenital koroner bir anomalidir. İyi huylu tesadüfi bir bulgudur. Koroner bilgisayarlı tomografi anjiyografi, koroner arter anomalilerinin invazif olmayan görüntüleme yöntemleri arasında ilk tercih edilecek görüntüleme yöntemidir. Ayrıca, hızlı ve güvenilirdir. Biz burada, göğüs ağrısı olan 20 yaşında bir erkek hastada koroner bilgisayarlı tomografi anjiyografide saptanan sol sirkümfleks arter yokluğunu sunmayı amaçladık
