Angiographic Recognition of Ostial Left Main Coronary Artery Stenosis: Case Report.
Publication/Presentation Date
8-1-1986
Abstract
Ostial left main coronary stenosis has a poor prognosis and increased mortality rate with coronary arteriography. Due to its anatomic location, visualization of the stenosis may be difficult. A high index of suspicion based upon only a few signs should prompt the physician to perform certain maneuvers to obtain the correct diagnosis. Four illustrative cases are presented and discussed.
