A 36-year-old man underwent coronary anteriography for evaluation of chest pain. His coronary arteries were smooth and free of obstructive disease. Selective right coronary injection revealed a large collateral vessel that opacified distal and proximal portions of the left circumflex coronary artery

## Abstract Endomyocardial biopsy is the reference standard for the diagnosis of cardiac allograft rejection and is performed frequently in cardiac transplant patients. Biopsies are taken percutaneously via the right internal jugular or femoral vein [1,2]. Fistulas from coronary arteries into the r
A 46-year-old female presented with an acute myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest. Coronary angiography revealed an anomalous origin of the right coronary artery coursing between the aorta and pulmonary artery. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the life-threatening nature of this anomaly and
Some patients with anginal chest pain and normal coronary arteries exhibit a paradoxical increase in coronary flow velocity after termination of acetylcholine infusion. The aim of this study was to investigate whether this paradoxical increase in the flow velocity is associated with the impaired mic
