INTRODUCTIONThe objective of this case report was to illustrate the diagnostic and intervention approach of anomalous right coronary artery (RCA).

CLINICAL PICTUREA 60-year-old man presented with acute inferior myocardial infarction. Cardiac catheterisation revealed an anomalous RCA arising from the posterior coronary sinus as the infarct-related artery.

TREATMENTAd hoc percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation was performed using a few technical modifications.

OUTCOMEGood angiographic result was achieved within 90 minutes, with 260 mL of contrast used.

CONCLUSIONA high index of suspicion and logical diagnostic and intervention approach are required for the proper management of anomalous RCA.
