dc.description.abstract | The coronary arteries which originate from the right and left aortic orifices are the main blood vessels to the myocardium. Variations are anomalies which could affect the overall perfusion of the myocardium causing conditions like ischemic heart diseases leading to sudden unpredicted death. Variants can also cause confusion to cardiologists and heart surgeons leading to challenges in patient management. This study sought to determine these variations among black African population in Western Kenya by assessing the variations in origin of the coronary artery. | en_US |
