An asymptomatic 13-year-old male was referred for a murmur. Echocardiography was utilized as a preliminary screening instrument, and subsequent diagnoses were facilitated by imaging techniques. The diagnosis of ALCAPA was confirmed by catheterization angiography of the echocardiographic findings, which has been demonstrated to improve the diagnostic accuracy of asymptomatic ALCAPA.
