    AbstractThe main coronary artery variants and anomalies are completely asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally or as they rise symptoms. Multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography represents an excellent technique for noninvasive assessment of the coronary tree mainly because of the multiplanar imaging modalities of computed tomography. Thin collimation permits to depict thin vessels such as the sinus node artery, as reported in this case. In this brief report, we describe a case of a rare anomaly of termination the coronaries, a double fistula between the sinus node artery, and the right atrium in a patient with atypical chest pain.Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc.
