The distance from the base of the left coronary sinus to the origin of the left main coronary artery was measured in 54 patients. The length of the left main coronary artery and the pattern of arterial dominance were determined in the last 37 patients. These variables were correlated with height, weight, age, sex, and presence or absence of coronary artery disease. Average distance from the basis of the left coronary sinus to the origin of the left main coronary artery was 19.4 +/- 2.7 mm. Average length of the left main coronary artery was 9.7 +/- 4.3 mm. There was a large inherent variability between distance from the base of left coronary sinus to the origin of the left main coronary artery and height of the subjects. Other variables did not show positive correlation. Similar large variability was noticed between of the left main coronary artery and height of the subjects. Thus, from these observations it was not possible to predict the distance from the base of the left coronary sinus to the origin of the left main coronary artery or the length of the left main coronary artery using height or any other variable. The importance of these findings in relation to coronary angiography is discussed.
在54例患者中测量了左冠状动脉窦底部至左冠状动脉主干起始处的距离。在最后37例患者中确定了左冠状动脉主干的长度和动脉优势类型。这些变量与身高、体重、年龄、性别以及是否存在冠状动脉疾病相关。左冠状动脉窦底部至左冠状动脉主干起始处的平均距离为19.4±2.7毫米。左冠状动脉主干的平均长度为9.7±4.3毫米。左冠状动脉窦底部至左冠状动脉主干起始处的距离与受试者身高之间存在很大的内在变异性。其他变量未显示出正相关。在左冠状动脉主干长度与受试者身高之间也观察到类似的巨大变异性。因此，根据这些观察结果，无法使用身高或任何其他变量来预测左冠状动脉窦底部至左冠状动脉主干起始处的距离或左冠状动脉主干的长度。讨论了这些发现与冠状动脉造影的相关性。
