Abstract
Coronary angioplasty can provide excellent means of revascularization of an omalous coronary arteries, Successful application of angioplasty to these v essels requires angiographic knowledge of their course, structure and appro priate equipment selection. Advancement of stent delivery systems in such c ases requires good support with the possibility of selective cannulation an d deep engagement of the guiding catheter, We report a case of stent placem ent in an anomalous circumflex artery arising from the right coronary arter y.
