title: Life-threatening bilateral aorto-ostial coronary artery disease in an octogenarian.
abstract: Aorto-ostial disease is difficult to approach percutaneously; therefore, a surgical option may be more desirable. We describe a case of an octogenarian in which the clinical arguments and technical approach have been summarised for a successful percutaneous therapeutic strategy. (Neth Heart J 2009;17:30-2.).
