  • Descripción: To identify the incidence of coronary artery anomalies and their subtypes in the South Asian (Indian) population using 128-slice MDCT angiography. This was a retrospective study involving 3300 patients who were referred for coronary MDCT angiography over a period of 8 years (2008–2016). All patients were evaluated by means of 128 slice MDCT scanner (SIEMENS SOMATOM AS+). A total of 171 coronary artery anomalies (5.2%) were identified. These included 109 peripheral branch anomalies, 56 ACAOS with abnormal course, 5 anomalies of coronary origin only & 1 coronary arterio-venous fistula. Of these 28 RCA anomalies had malignant interarterial course and 27 LCA anomalies had benign retroaortic course and one with intramyocardial course. 128 slice MDCT coronary angiography provides high temporal & spatial resolution along with a very precise volume rendering 3D imaging which enables the diagnosis of coronary artery anomalies unchallenging. Our study showed that the incidence of coronary artery anomalies was far higher in the Indian population when compared with the western or global population, emphasising further the need for such a study, in view of the high incidence of cardiovascular diseases in India when compared with the rest of the world.
