Özet

Total chronic occlusion of the left main coronary artery is a rare angiographic finding in a catheterization laboratory and its treatment rarely is reported. We describe a patient with angiographic findings of chronic total occlusion of the left main coronary artery with left coronary circulation collateralized from the right coronary artery. © 2008 Italian Federation of Cardiology.
