  • Title: A new form of coronary subclavian steal syndrome: 'the spinning wheels' syndrome.
    Author: Fayad G, Modine T, Beregi JP, Koussa M.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2008 Apr; 7(2):355-7. PubMed ID: 18199565.
    Abstract:
    Coronary subclavian steal syndrome refers to decreased or reversed internal mammary artery flow, which causes angina related to severe subclavian steno-occlusive disease in patients with in situ internal mammary-to-coronary artery graft. We report a case, the first in the literature, of a right internal mammary artery-coronary-subclavian unidirectional steal syndrome. Clinical features, pathophysiology, and diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of this unusual adverse event are discussed.
