    Author: Unic D, Mihaljevic T, Leacche M, Gasparovic H, Albert MA, Byrne JG.
    Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2004 Aug; 52(4):230-1. PubMed ID: 15293160.
    Abstract:
    Coronary artery aneurysms are a rare condition with left-main trunk aneurysms occurring in only about 0.1 % of the population. We report on a giant left-main coronary artery aneurysm in a young male status post two previous open-heart operations. The aneurysm was successfully treated by patch occlusion of the ostial orifice and coronary revascularization of the left anterior descending and circumflex arteries.
