摘要
We report a case of sudden death in a previously healthy 40-year-old man due to an aneurysm of the right coronary artery associated with an anomalous origin of the coronary from the left sinus of Valsalva. The pathophysiological mechanism is discussed. Clin. Anat. 24:501-502, 2011. (C) 2011 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
