Definition:  pending

Common Synonyms:  pending

Modality: Anatomic specimen

Orientation: Open aortic valve

Description: This anatomic view of an open aortic valve shows the right (RCO) and left (LCO) coronary orifices arising from the left coronary sinus. The left orifice arises deep within the sinus and the right arises above the sinotubular junction adjacent to the commissure. (MV - mitral valve).

Modality: Anatomic specimen

Orientation: Short axis view

Description: The short axis view of the base of the heart shows the anomalous origin of the right coronary artery (RCA). It exits the aorta just above the sinotubular junction immediately to the left of the commissure between the left (yellow asterisk) and right (red asterisk) coronary leaflets, as well as between the aorta and pulmonary trunk (PT). The right coronary artery has a slit-like orifice and an abnormal angle of origin with a course that parallels the aortic wall. In comparison, the normal left coronary artery (LCA) exits perpendicular to the aorta to the left of the pulmonary trunk (PT).  (LAA - left atrial appendage).
