Abstract

We present a 68-year-old male with left main coronary artery aneurysm and extensive coronary calcification involving the entire coronary arterial tree detected by coronary angiography and electron beam computerized tomography. With this article we also discussed the relationships between the pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis, coronary calcification, and coronary aneurysm formation.
