Abstract
Introduction
The human coronary system is normally comprised of a right and left coronary artery that feed respective regions of the heart. The right and left coronary arteries usually arise from the area superior to their respective coronary cusp, known as the sinus of Valsalva. However, it has been found that approximately 1.33% of humans have coronary artery anomalies. R-II Lipton classification coronary artery anomalies are found in only 0.015% of the population and 1.1% of coronary anomalies.1 We present the case of a 55-year-old man with a R-IIP modified Lipton classification coronary artery anomaly.
