Giant right coronary artery aneurysm on 64-MDCT

Abstract

An 81-year-old woman was referred for cardiac computed tomography-angiography (CCTA) after an extracardiac mass was found on echocardiography. CCTA found a giant atherosclerotic right coronary artery aneurysm with a maximal diameter of 80 mm, which was compressing the right atrium and right appendage, proximal superior vena cava, right ventricle inlet and tricuspid annulus.
