Quando la diagnosi può essere incerta: Origine anomala dell'arteria coronaria destra dall'arteria polmonare o fistola coronarica?

The anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is a rare congenital coronary anomaly with a reported incidence of approximately 0.002%. Usually, the diagnosis is made by echocardiography leaving computed tomography or angiography only to diagnostic completion in doubtful cases or for interventional procedures. Herein we report a doubtful case of a patient with a diagnosis of coronary fistula between the right coronary and the pulmonary artery that proved to be an anomalous origin of the coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. The patient underwent corrective surgery with translocation of the coronary artery on the aorta.
