Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery (AAOCA) is a
rare anomaly of the coronary artery with a considerable risk
of sudden cardiac death due to ischaemia of the heart.
Symptoms may include chest pain on exertion,
breathlessness or dizziness. We encountered a case of a 46-
year-old female who complained of exertional chest pain
with a positive-stress test and subsequently diagnosed with
AAOCA through CT angiography (CTA). She successfully
underwent a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery
using a saphenous vein graft with uneventful recovery. Right
internal mammary artery (RIMA) was not used as it was
flimsy and the flow was very poor.
