Abstract
Pediatric chest pain is a common reason for cardiology referral, and evaluation of exertional chest pain requires proper delineation of coronary anatomy. Congenital coronary anomalies are rare and often benign. However, certain anomalies such as intramural coronary arteries and myocardial bridges have been associated with angina, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. We present a case of a 10-year-old male with exertional chest pain whose coronary anatomy could not be defined by echocardiography and further evaluation by computed tomography angiography revealed a rare congenital coronary anomaly.
