abstract: A successful operation for a patient of unstable angina with hypoxia is reported. A 80-year-old woman was admitted with severe chest oppression. The selective coronary angiogram revealed 3-vessel disease. Symptoms were uncontrolled by medical therapy. Aorto-coronary bypass surgery (with 3-saphenous vein grafts) was followed by excellent post-operative course. The patient has been asymptomatic for more than 1 year after operation.
