ABSTRACT
Single coronary artery (SCA) is one of the rarest congenital coronary artery anomalies, with the incidence ranging from 0.01% to 0.07% [1]. SCA can be either an isolated anomaly or associated with other congenital abnormalities such as bicuspid aortic valve. Most of the cases of SCA are asymptomatic. The malignant variety of SCA is the type in which SCA is located between the aorta and the pulmonary artery [2].
