Summary:We report two very unusual cases of agenesis of the right coronary ostium with continuation of the left circumflex artery as the right coronary artery. The recognition of the anomaly in the first case lead to a better understanding of this finding in the second case, which translated into shorter procedure time, less contrast volume, and fewer catheter manipulations.
We report 4 cases of deep venous thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism after diagnostic cardiac catheterization. Two of these cases followed left heart catheterization alone.
We report a case that showed reversibility of a generalized narrowing of the left internal mammary graft in response to interruption of collateral flow to the distal vessel supplied by the graft.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
