title: Coronary angioplasty of anomalous right coronary artery originating from the left sinus of Valsalva.
abstract: Coronary angioplasty of an anomalous coronary artery can be technically challenging because of difficulty in cannulating the aberrant vessel and in obtaining a stable guiding catheter position. Only three cases with the right coronary artery originating from the left sinus of Valsalva were previously reported. We present a new case in which a successful angioplasty was obtained using a Williams LR guiding catheter.
