Abstract

Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are rare congenital variations that may present with chest pain, arrhythmias, or sudden cardiac death. Their recognition in young female patients is particularly challenging due to overlapping non-cardiac causes of chest pain. This review synthesizes incidence data, diagnostic approaches, and management strategies, emphasizing the importance of early detection in this subgroup.
