Abstract

We report on a patient with left internal mammary artery (LIMA) side branch steal syndrome and refractory angina who underwent successful transcatheter LIMA side branch closure after cardiac positron emission tomography-computed tomography assessment. The procedure resulted in improved myocardial ischemia, hyperemic blood flow, coronary flow reserve, and anginal symptoms.
