AV block ID coronary artery
Pretest
Question 1
True or False
1. Isolated coronary artery anomalies occur in the absence of other major congenital cardiac defects.
2. In adults, the clinical interest in coronary anomalies relates to their occasional association with sudden death, myocardial ischemia, congestive heart failure, or endocarditis.
3. In addition, presence of coronary artery anomalies may, at times, create challenges during coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary interventions, and coronary artery surgery.
4. Patients diagnosed with incomplete AV block may progress to complete block when treated with digoxin

Isolated coronary artery anomalies occur in the absence of other major congenital cardiac defects.
In adults, the clinical interest in coronary anomalies relates to their occasional association with sudden death, myocardial ischemia, congestive heart failure, or endocarditis.
In addition, presence of coronary artery anomalies may, at times, create challenges during coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary interventions, and coronary artery surgery.
Most patients with coronary artery anomaly remain asymptomatic either because the anomaly does not produce any symptoms during life or because the first manifestation is sudden death.
In infants, myocardial ischemia may manifest as episodic crying, tachypnea, or wheezing.
Most coronary artery anomalies are discovered incidentally during noninvasive imaging, coronary angiography, or at autopsy and cause no clinical symptoms.
Patients diagnosed with incomplete AV block may progress to complete block when treated with digoxin.
