title: Single coronary artery: a report of 2 cases.
abstract: An isolated single coronary artery is a rare congenital anomaly. We report 2 patients each of whom had a single coronary artery with an obstructive atherosclerotic lesion in one of its branches. In the first patient angioplasty was successfully performed using a perfusion catheter whilst in the second, the procedure was considered inappropriate as the patient had chronic total occlusion.
