AN ANATOMICAL STUDY OF CORONARY ARTERY DOMINANCE IN HUMAN CADAVERIC HEARTS

One of the biggest advances in CABG was the use of the internal thoracic artery (ITA) anastomosed to the left anterior descending branch (AD) of the left coronary artery [2,3],

The cineangiocoronariography showed occlusion of the right coronary artery and a 95% obstruction in the left main coronary artery in addition to an interruption at the descending

At cinecoronariography, occlusion of the right corona- ry, critical stenosis in the proximal portion of the anterior descending branch and circumflex branch, and an aneurysm of the

arteriography revealed moderate hypokinesia in the poste- rior-basal wall of the left ventricle, left anterior descending and left circumflex coronary arteries without critical

established for the diagnosis of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery as follows: (1) retrograde filling of the left coronary artery; (2) connection

The selective injection in the left coronary showed a dilated short left main, small marginal branch of the left circumflex artery, and dilated proximal left anterior descen-

The type of dominance of the left coronary artery also comprises 2 subtypes: C1) the left coronary artery originates the posterior interventricular branch, independently of
