title: The length of the left main coronary artery: pathological features.
abstract: The mean length of the LCA found by pathological (or angiographic) methods is fairly constant. This exclusively anatomical study shows no significant relationship between the length of the LCA and stenotic atherosclerosis in the LCA or the heart weight or a dominant left circumflex coronary artery or a complete His left bundle-branch block.
