Rationale: Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is a rare condition with a very low incidence. Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is the most prevalent form of coronary anomaly. One variant of AAOCA is the anomalous aortic origin of the left coronary artery from the right coronary sinus (L-AAOCA).

Coronary sinus (CS) defects are rare congenital cardiac anomalies that occur in isolation or with other congenital heart diseases. Persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) is a relatively common entity that usually drains into the CS, is of no hemodynamic consequence, and is easily diagnosed on echocardiography by a dilated CS and an antegrade flow toward the heart. However, a combination of LSVC and CS defect may reverse its flow direction and CS dilation may be absent.

Background: Unroofed coronary sinus (UCS) is a rare congenital anomaly and is usually found incidentally. While coronary sinus thrombosis (CST) can occur following instrumentation of the coronary sinus, spontaneous CST is a rare occurrence and only a few cases have been reported to date. The presence of both rare entities concurrently has not been reported previously.

Background: The coronary sinus type of atrial septal defect is rare. Standard treatment typically involves intracardiac repair using conventional sternotomy or thoracotomy incisions; however, robotic technology can offer a feasible alternative due to its ability to provide a high-quality surgical view of this anomaly.
Case Presentation: A 72-year-old man presented with asymptomatic atrial septal defect.
