Summary

Coronary artery anomalies (CAA) are a rare congenital condition, accounting abnormalities of origin, course, destination, size, and number of the coronary vessels. In normal hearts, the coronary arteries, the left and right coronary arteries (LCA and RCA, respectively) originate from the two facing aortic sinuses of Valsalva, so-called left and right. To overcome the echocardiographic limitations, the investigators designed, studied and implemented in our Institute a specific echocardiographic-based two-dimensional non-Doppler 4-views approach for the diagnosis of CAA.
