title: Intra-cavitary course of right coronary artery: what the cardiologists should be aware of!
abstract: We report an unusual case of an anomalous intra-cavitary course of the right coronary artery (RCA) that was detected on multislice computed tomography (CT) angiography. Albeit rare, this anomaly is being picked up with increasing frequency owing to the widespread use of coronary CT angiography (CCTA). Although this entity does not produce symptoms per se, it can result in potentially catastrophic complications during interventional procedures or bypass surgeries if not recognized in time.
