Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
A hallmark of CAA was considered the absence of a proper visualization of the origin of the coronary arteries from the aortic root. In addition, the presence of the ring sign, visualized from the PLAX was considered as abnormal. This sign is of interest when an aberrant left or right CAA is suspected. A coronary artery originating from the contralateral aortic sinus, along its intramural course, crosses the mid-anterior line of the circular aorta to reach the sinus of Valsalva of its intended origin. Consequently, its cross-section should be visible in an orthogonal view traversing the mid-long axis of the aorta, namely the parasternal long-axis view.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Congenita coronary abnormalities (CAA)
All the coronary arteries were differing from the definition of "normal": when do not arise from the appropriate sinus of Valsalva (right or left) and not present a proper course and termination.
Echocardiographic assessment of coronary arteries origin and proximal course
Echocardiographic assessment of CAA utilizing 4 specific echocardiographic acoustic windows: parasternal short-axis (PSAX), parasternal long-axis (PLAX), apical 4/5-chambers views.
