Primary stenting of an anomalous left main coronary artery originating from the right sinus of Valsalva during acute myocardial infarction
Journal Title: Dicle Tıp Dergisi - Year 2015, Vol 42, Issue 2
Abstract
Anomalous origin of left and right coronary arteries from a single coronary ostium in the right sinus of Valsalva is rare. Previously, few reports have described percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in this anomaly. We report a case of a 78-year-old female who had acute inferior myocardial infarction with a severe lesion in the anomalous left main coronary artery (LMCA) arising from a single ostium in the right sinus of Valsalva. Key words: Coronary artery anomaly, single coronary artery, acute myocardial infarction, Primary PCI
