    Abstract:
    The internal mammary artery is the conduit of choice for cardiac revascularization. Atherosclerotic disease of the coronary arteries may simultaneously involve the subclavian artery. Proximal stenosis in the left subclavian artery may result in recurrent myocardial ischemia in patients with a patent left internal mammary artery (LIMA), due to coronary steal syndrome through the LIMA.
