SQL conditional 'WHERE' clause

Question

I'm trying to do a conditional AND within a SQL WHERE clause. A pseudo code example is below.

SELECT
    *
FROM [Table]
WHERE
    [A] = [B]
AND
    IF EXISTS
    (
        SELECT TOP 1 1
        FROM [Table2]
        WHERE
            1 = 1
    )
        BEGIN
            --Do conditional filter
            (Table3.[C] = Table.[A])
        END

So, if the if condition is true, the rest of the filtering should be applied. Any help please?

Answer 1

This should cater for the chance of the conditional filter and without

AND
(
    NOT EXISTS
    (
        SELECT TOP 1 1
        FROM [Table2]
        WHERE
            1 = 1
    )
    OR
    (
        EXISTS
        (
            SELECT TOP 1 1
            FROM [Table2]
            WHERE
                1 = 1
        )
        AND
        (
            --Do conditional filter
            (Table3.[C] = Table.[A])
        )
    )
)
