Abstract
A 66-year-old (59.5-kg, 142-cm) woman, with progressive exertional angina and inferior wall ischemia during stress thallium perfusion scan, was admitted to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania for cardiac catheterization. Daily medications included nitrates and one children’s aspirin (80 mg). Cardiac catheterization showed severe obstructions in the right and left anterior descending (LAD) coronary arteries, and a lesion in the first diagonal branch of the LAD. Inferobasal hypokinesis and normal hemodynamics were evident. There was no history or physical signs of a preexisting hemorrhagic diathesis. Results of preoperative coagulation studies including platelet count, prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) were normal.
