A young symptomatic patient is reported with anomalous origin of the left
main coronary artery from the right sinus of Valsalva and two stenoses in
the intramurally coursing segment of the vessel, namely at the site of the
intercoronary commissure and at its exit site in the left sinus of
Valsalva. Unroofing of the intramural segment and a modified angioplasty
technique resulted in a widely patent neo-coronary ostium.
