Congenital Coronary Artery Abnormalities (CAA) is a group of defects that appear at birth and can have a wide range of clinical presentations and severity levels. CAA may be discovered by chance during cardiac imaging or autopsy in patients who are asymptomatic. Ischemia-related signs and symptoms, which can lead to an elevated risk of Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD), might also appear as the initial symptom. We cover the normal morphology of the Coronary Arteries (CA) and the pathology of CAA at risk of SCD in this chapter, as well as our experience with SCD victims in the young population (under 40 years) and sports.
