Abstract EN

Coronary artery anomalies are congenital changes in their origin, course, and/or structure.

They are the second most frequent cause of sudden death in young athletes.

Dual LAD artery is a rare coronary anomaly.

We present the case of a 44-year-old man with recent onset exertional angina and documented ischemia whose coronary angiogram and computed tomography (CT) showed type 4 dual LAD artery, the rarest and most interesting variant.
