Abstract

Absent Left circumflex (LCX) artery is a rare coronary artery anomaly usually detected incidentally on angiographic studies. We present a case of absent LCX diagnosed with Computed Tomography Coronary Angiogram (CTCA) in an 80 year old female presenting with atypical chest pain and normal cardiac parameters.
