    Selective coronary arteriography is essential for diagnosing and managing uncommon pediatric coronary artery anomalies when standard angiography is insufficient. This technique provides crucial anatomical detail for surgical planning and patient care.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric cardiology
    • Interventional radiology
    • Congenital heart disease

    Background:

    • Coronary artery anomalies in children are rare but require precise diagnosis.
    • Advances in cardiac surgery necessitate accurate pre-operative anatomical assessment.
    • Ascending aortography is the standard imaging technique for pediatric coronary arteries.

    Observation:

    • Standard ascending aortography can fail to fully delineate complex coronary artery pathologies.
    • Selective coronary arteriography was performed in 12 pediatric patients.
    • The study compares the diagnostic value of selective versus non-selective angiography.

    Findings:

    • Selective coronary arteriography proved essential in specific pediatric cases.
    • This technique offers superior visualization of coronary artery disease extent and nature.
