Abstract

A 19-year-old woman had angina on exertion, which had existed for 4 years. An exercise test was strongly positive, and selective coronary angiography showed 95% block of the left main coronary artery at its ostium. The patient underwent a successful aortocoronary bypass to the left anterior descending coronary artery. After 1 year and 10 months, she continues to be asymptomatic.
