A relation between the proximal or distal localisation ofatherosclerotic lesions and 3 anatomical variables (i) the length of the left main coronary artery, (ii) its angle of bifurcation into anterior descending and circumflex arteries, and (iii) the dominant coronary artery, was sought at coronary angiography. Studies were made on 149 angiograms of which 95 had critical stenoses (>50% of vesse...

background: systolic blood pressure recovery (rsbp) is of prognostic value for predicting the survival and co-morbidity rate in patients with coronary artery disease (cad). this study investigated the association between rsbp and exercise indices after complete cardiac rehabilitation program (cr) in a population-based sample of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg). methods...

this article describes coronary artery bypass grafting by avlliath jay akrishnan et al. one of the most common reason for coronary artery bypass grafting is narrowing coronary arteries because of atherosclerosis. atherosclerosis causes chest pain (angina pectoris), myocardial infarction and sudden death. the aim of coronary artery bypass grafting is to release pain, prevention of myocardial inf...

AND ANOMALIES The right coronary artery (RCA) arises from the right coronary sinus and runs in the right AV groove (Fig. 5-1). Generally, the conus artery and the sinoatrial artery arise from the RCA. In approximately 85% of individuals, the posterior descending coronary artery arises from the RCA (defined as a right dominant coronary circulation). The left main coronary artery arises from the ...
