AB This  chapter  focuses  on  the  management  of  coronary  artery  anomalies  in  patients  without  other  hemodynamically  significant  heart  defects.  Although  most  coronary  artery  anomalies  are  of  intellectual  interest  only,  there  are  a  few  that  are  clinically  significant  as  they  may  result  in  myocardial  ischemia,  left  ventricular  dysfunction,  and  sudden  death.  The  clinically  significant  anomalies  that  we  will  discuss  in  this  chapter  are:  anomalous  origin  of  a  coronary  artery  from  the  pulmonary  artery,  anomalous  coronary  artery  that  courses  between  the  aorta  and  the  pulmonary  artery,  and  coronary  artery  fistulae.
