Aneurysmal dilation of coronary arteries is a rare condition detected during coronary angiography. Due to their poorly elucidated underlying mechanisms, their variable presentations, and the lack of large-scale outcome data on their various treatment modalities, coronary artery aneurysms, and coronary ectasia pose a challenge to the managing clinician. This case presentation provides insight into the challenges regarding the management of the coronary artery aneurysm during the perioperative period.
