Abstract
The prevalence of anomalous origin of coronary artery in tetralogy of Fallot has been reported to be around 4% to 6%. The association of high take-off of the right coronary artery from the distal part of the ascending aorta in tetralogy of Fallot in the presence of a partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) to the left superior caval vein draining into the left atrium is not known to the best of our knowledge. We herein describe such a case when the anomalous right coronary artery and the PAPVC were detected incidentally during intracardiac repair; signifying the importance of a thorough assessment of the anatomy before surgery.
