Abstract

Total occlusion of both coronary ostia is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication following surgical aortic valve replacement. This report presents a case of a patient with known total occlusion of both coronary artery ostia following combined coronary artery bypass graft surgery and aortic valve replacement who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention through a retrograde approach.

Keywords: CAR-carotid artery disease; CORG-coronary bypass grafts; PCIC-percutaneous coronary intervention; complex PCI.
