Abstract

Isolated stenotic lesion located at the ostium of the left main coronary artery associated with Takayasu`s aortitis is quite rare. This report herein described a case of 25 year old woman with isolated ostial stenosis of the left main coronary artery underwent pericardial patch [fixed with 0.6 % glutaraldehyde] angioplasty. An anterior approach was used and postoperative coronary angiogram of the patient showed normal coronary ostial contour with normal runoff.
