Rudimentary left coronary artery∗

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1961
Abstract A rather unique cardiac anomaly, a rudimentary left coronary artery, has been described, with electrocardiographic and pathologic correlation. The presence of left bundle branch block was an important clinical sign. The cardiac anomaly was the presumptive cause of death.

Left main coronary artery aneurysm

Herz, 2012
Left main coronary artery aneurysms (LMCA) are usually asymptomatic and are rarely encountered during coronary angiography. The most serious complications include coronary thrombosis, acute myocardial infarction and sudden death. Atherosclerosis is the most common cause, although several autoimmune diseases and congenital abnormalities have been ...

Complete Left Coronary Artery Obstruction

Chest, 1973
A case of angiographically documented complete left cornary artery (LCA) obstruction is presented. Complete occlusion of the main LCA is associated with a poor prognosis, and patients with this lesion should be considered for immediate emergency coronary bypass graft surgery.

Coronary Artery-Left Ventricular Fistula

Cardiology, 1981
Coronary artery-left ventricular fistulae are exceedingly rare and to date only 19 cases have been reported in the literature. We describe another four cases which we encountered recently. The first patient was a 10-year-old asymptomatic Indian male who was referred because of a to-and-fro murmur.

Diffuse left coronary artery fistulae

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2014
Coronary artery fistulae draining into the right ventricle are extremely rarely observed. We demonstrate a case of multiple left coronary artery-to-right ventricle fistulae in a 74-year-old female patient with typical angina on exertion (Figure 1). Because the left-toright fistulae were diffuse, neither surgery nor transcatheter coil occlusion were ...

Left Main Coronary Artery Disease

Southern Medical Journal, 1979
Eighteen patients with significant stenosis of the left main coronary artery are reported and compared with 1,040 patients described in the ten largest published series. In comparison to previous reports, our patients have a higher incidence of congestive heart failure, previous myocardial infarction (especially inferior wall), poorer left ventricular ...

Absent left circumflex coronary artery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1994
AbstractThis is the first reported case of a coronary artery anomaly in which the left circumflex artery was absent. The lateral and posterior aspects of the left ventricle were supplied by a large diagonal artery and a very long right coronary artery which continued along the atrioventricular groove. © 1994 Wiley‐Liss,Inc..

Left Main Coronary Artery Occlusion

Cardiology, 1985
Patients with complete occlusion of the left main coronary artery are candidates for massive myocardial infarction and sudden death and are thought to have a uniformly poor prognosis. Complete occlusion of the left main coronary artery was identified in 2 male patients among 2,546 patients undergoing cardiac catheterization over a period of 14.5 years ...

Woven left coronary artery disease

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1995
CASE 1. S.L., a 60-year-old patient, developed angina pectons and had a positive thalhum scan. Coronary ang~ograms showed apparently normal left mam trunk and proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD). Subsequently, the LAD subdivided into 3 channels, intertwining along their course.
