title: Single coronary artery: a case report.
abstract: We report a case of a 47-year-old woman with a previous myocardial infarction, in whom coronary angiography showed a right-type single coronary artery (arising from a single ostium in the right sinus of Valsalva) without associated obstructive lesions. We have demonstrated that the transesophageal echocardiogram was complementary to angiography in the assessment of retroaortic course of the anomalous left main coronary artery.
