Core Tip A Dutch case series of 15 adult patients with congenital isolated single coronary artery (SCA) are presented. Conventional coronary angiography demonstrated congenital isolated SCA originating as a single ostium from the right sinus of Valsalva in 6 patients and originating from the left in 9 patients. SCA may be associated with symptomatic transient transmural myocardial ischemia, non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, and aborted sudden death in the absence or presence of coronary atherosclerosis. The availability of multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging facilitates the delineation of the course of the anomalous vessel. MSCT was helpful to delineate the course of the anomalous artery relative to the aorta and pulmonary artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was successfully performed in 3 patients. Eight patients were managed medically. Arterial bypass graft was performed in 4 patients with the squeezed SCA. The literature addressing SCA is reviewed.
