Abstract

Wellen's sign occurs due to either critical stenosis in the proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) or coronary steal phenomenon. Here we report a case of a 57-year-old gentleman with anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from mid LAD, where both these phenomena contributed together leading to Wellen's sign.
