Anomalous Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery (ALCAPA) is a rare coronary artery anomaly which accounts for 0.25–0.5% of all congenital cardiac diseases, where most die within the first year of life. We present a case report of a 50-year-old lady who presented to hospital with persistent palpitations. Her admission electrocardiogram found her to be in Atrial Fibrillation (AF). She was rate-controlled and subsequently discharged. Despite that, she represented with further episodes of AF and was referred for an outpatient transthoracic echocardiogram. This revealed a dilated right coronary artery, retrograde flow in the left coronary artery and collateral flow in the myocardium. To investigate, the patient had undergone further imaging which confirmed the diagnosis. As such, she was later shortlisted for surgical intervention. Conclusively, our case exemplifies the role of multimodal imaging to identify the features of ALCAPA and may be useful for the purposes of surgical intervention.
