Abstract

We report a case series of 14 cases (mean age 54.14 ± 14.75 years) of successful percutaneous coronary intervention of anomalous left circumflex artery. While the intermediate-term follow-up (mean 36.0 ± 20.58 months) was uneventful in 12 patients, one died of a non-cardiac cause, while other lost to follow-up.

Keywords: Anomalous left circumflex artery; Percutaneous coronary intervention; Stent.
