Abstract
Failure to close the side branches of the internal mammary artery can result in ischemia due to coronary steal through a patent mammary artery side branch after coronary artery bypass grafting. The authors present the case of a 56-year-old man with recurrent angina after 6 month surgical myocardial revascularization underwent coronary angiography that showed patent left branch of the internal mammary artery. After demonstration of inducible ischemia, effective percutaneous treatment was performed using coil embolization, improving blood flow and clinical symptoms.
期刊介绍:
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions is an international journal covering the broad field of cardiovascular diseases. Subject material includes basic and clinical information that is derived from or related to invasive and interventional coronary or peripheral vascular techniques. The journal focuses on material that will be of immediate practical value to physicians providing patient care in the clinical laboratory setting. To accomplish this, the journal publishes Preliminary Reports and Work In Progress articles that complement the traditional Original Studies, Case Reports, and Comprehensive Reviews. Perspective and insight concerning controversial subjects and evolving technologies are provided regularly through Editorial Commentaries furnished by members of the Editorial Board and other experts. Articles are subject to double-blind peer review and complete editorial evaluation prior to any decision regarding acceptability.
