title: An unusual case of anomalous origin of the right coronary artery and hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia.
abstract: Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery (ARCA) and focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) are frequently reported in association with congenital heart abnormalities but not with each other. We propose that both conditions may share common origins in a maladative hyperplastic response to differential vascular flow due to developmental arterial malformations or aberrant Notch signalling during simultaneous gut and cardiac vasculorigenesis.
