We report a case of coronary angioplasty to the right coronary artery, the circumflex, and the left anterior descending artery in a patient with anomalous left main coronary artery arising from the right aortic sinus of Valsalva. At angiographically documented follow-up of more than 2 years, the patient remains well without restenosis. This case represents the only such report in the literature. Angioplasty hardware was an important factor in successful crossing and dilatation of multiple severe and distal stenoses in the anomalous left system; appropriate technical details are discussed.
