Paediatric Syncope: An Unfortunate Variant

Abstract

We present a case report of 7 years old boy who presented with cardiac arrest after collapsing during physical activity at school. He had had previous syncopal episodes but with normal physical examination and investigations. Subsequent autopsy showed a congenital cardiac anomaly where the coronary sinus only gave rise to only a single right coronary artery from which the left coronary artery branched.
