Abstract

Left main coronary artery aneurysm is an uncommon feature of coronary artery disease in adults. We describe the case of a large aneurysm in a 58-year-old patient undergoing cardiac catheterization for effort angina and inducible myocardial ischemia. Specific considerations about the underlying causes and therapeutic options are discussed.
