single coronary artery
Prevalence
and characteristics of coronary artery anomalies in an adult population undergoing multidetector-row computed tomography for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. A patient with a single coronary artery originating from the right sinus of Valsalva. a Axial image demonstrating the left main coronary artery travelling between the aorta (AO) and the right ventricular outflow tract (b). Cardiac transparency image shows the anomalous origin of the LM, its course and the detailed anatomic relationship
Prevalence
and characteristics of coronary artery anomalies in an adult population undergoing multidetector-row computed tomography for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. A patient with a single coronary artery. Volume-rendered and cardiac transparency images reveals a SCA arising from the left sinus of Valsalva and gives off the left anterior descending (LAD) and circumflex (LCx) branches. The right coronary artery ostium was congenitally absent (Panel A). The LCx is markedly dominant and continues beyond the crux into the atrioventricular groove and provides branches to the right ventricle and atrium (Panel B)
Prevalence
and characteristics of coronary artery anomalies in an adult population undergoing multidetector-row computed tomography for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. 3-D volume-rendered images of the coronary tree showing a single coronary artery arising from the left coronary sinus, where the left main artery (LM) gives rise to the right coronary artery (RCA) as shown by the black arrow. The RCA runs a malignant course between the pulmonary artery (PA) and the aorta

Single coronary arteries are rare (incidence 0.03-0.07%), with a higher incidence in patients with congenital heart disease (in particular truncus arteriosus and pulmonary atresia). They occur when there is a single ostia arising from the aorta with no ectopic ostia. There is a wide variety of courses and configurations of the coronary arteries.
