Abstract

Woven coronary artery is an extremely rare anomaly in which epicardial coronary arteries divided into thin tunnel-like channels. WCA is thought to be a benign condition, however, it was associated with myocardial infarction and ischemia in some case reports. We present a 61-year-old male patient with woven right coronary artery.

Keywords: Coronary artery anomaly; Coronary artery disease; Woven coronary artery.
