Successful Primary PTCA for A 61-Year-Old Male with Inferior Wall Myocardial Infarction: Navigating Anomalous Coronary Arteries and Occlusions
Shivendran Madhurai Shanmughasundaram [3] | Dolly Mathew [8]
Abstract: 61 years old Male admitted with Inferior wall myocardial infarction and patient was taken for Primary PTCA (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty). RCA (Right coronary artery) was not visualized in the Right Sinus. Angiography of left coronary sinus showed anomalous origin of left coronary artery from left sinus and showed proximal RCA total occlusion. Judicious use of JL 4.0 (Judkin Left) at the right time helped to shorten the procedure duration, reduce contrast volume and revascularise the patient at the earliest.
Keywords: Anomalous origin on Right coronary artery; Judkin Right, 3DRCA, Judkin Left catheter
