A 71-year-old male patient with a clinicial history of hypertension, dyslipidemia and active smoking was admitted for NSTEMI.
Coronary angiography showed a left main (LM) stenosis involving the bifurcation and proximal parts of the left anterior descending (LAD) and left circumflex (LCx) arteries. Right coronary artery (RCA) showed a severe long diffuse disease.
The echocardiography showed mild reduced left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF).
