    • A 13-year-old boy had an acute anterior myocardial infarction during physical exercise at
      school.
    • Immediate coronary angiography evidenced a left coronary artery anomaly, but exact depiction of
      the anomalous course was not possible.

    • ECG-gated contrast-enhanced CT was performed for further evaluation.
