Abstract

A right coronary artery (RCA) arising from the left main is a very uncommon congenital defect. We report on a 69-year-old patient with an acute myocardial infarction submitted to primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for an anomalous RCA. The PCI procedure was complicated by an acute thrombotic occlusion, successfully treated by an intracoronary bolus of abciximab.
