    AbstractAnomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ARCAPA) is a very rare congenital heart anomaly. Most of the cases are asymptomatic during infancy and childhood. We report ARCAPA associated with aberrant right subclavian artery in a 2-month male infant presenting with heart failure. We used computed tomography angiography for confirming the diagnosis and also for post-operative follow-up.
