Abstract
Anomalous coronary arteries pose an additional challenge when contemplating surgical options for a patient with aortic valve or root pathology. We demonstrate the course of an anomalous retro-aortic left circumflex coronary artery arising from the right coronary sinus in a patient with an aortic root and ascending aortic aneurysm with severe aortic regurgitation who underwent ascending aorta and aortic valve replacements.
