There remains significant controversy in the risk stratification and management of patients with anomalous right coronary artery originating from the opposite sinus (R-ACAOS). We present the case of a patient with an inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction, found to have R-ACAOS and severe atherosclerotic right coronary artery disease, treated with fractional flow reserve and intravascular ultrasound-guided percutaneous coronary intervention.
