Figure 2 Multi-slice computed tomography angiography (MSCTA) of Group VI dual left anterior descending (LAD) artery anomaly. (A) Three-dimensional (3D) rendering showing the origin of the long LAD from the right coronary artery (RCA). (B) The first (long) LAD arises as a branch from the RCA at the right coronary sinus (RCS), while the second (short) LAD arises from the left main coronary artery (LMCA). (C) Sagittal view and (D) curved multiplanar reformation (MPR) view, both showing the malignant inter-arterial course (between the right ventricular outflow tract and aorta).
