Anomalous right coronary artery arising from the pulmonary artery

Discussion:

Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery is known as ARCAPA. The RCA is perfused retrograde from left coronary collaterals with flow of blood into the pulmonary artery, resulting in a left to right shunt. Both the left and right coronaries tend to dilate and have a tortuous course.
