✦ Synopsis

This report describes a patient who presented with a non Q wave myocardial infarction and post-infarction angina. Angiography revealed that his only significant disease was a severe lesion in an acute marginal branch of the right coronary artery. Balloon angioplasty was performed successfully with subsequent stabilization and no recurrence of angina in a 9-month follow-up. This case raises the possibility that acute marginal disease may contribute to ischemic syndromes and warrants consideration for revascularization.

## Abstract We report 2 cases of successful angioplasty of anomalous right coronary arteries originating above the sinotubular line at the junction of the right and left sinus of Valsalva. The use of Amplatz left guiding catheters provided optimal support for performing angioplasty. Β© 1993 Wiley‐Li
