About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is a group of rare congenital heart defects with various clinical presentations. The lifetime-risk of an individual living with AAOCA is unknown, and data from multicentre registries are urgently needed to adapt current recommendations and guide optimal patient management. The European Registry for AAOCA (EURO-AAOCA) aims to assess differences with regard to AAOCA management between centres.
The 2 groups in the trial
- adult > 30 years
All adult patient \> 30 yrs undergoing diagnosis (incidental or not) of anomalous aortic origin of coronary arteries
Treatment: unroofing or other surgery if needed
- Juvenile < 30 yrs
All young patient \<30 yrs undergoing diagnosis (incidental or not) of anomalous aortic origin of coronary arteries
Treatment: unroofing or other surgery if needed
