    Abstract:
    A 49-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of palpitation and right shoulder pain. Examinations showed isolated left main coronary artery disease. Surgical angioplasty of left main coronary artery was considered. The left main stem was approached anteriorly. Pericardium was chosen for patch material and the left main coronary artery was enlarged from 1.5 to 4.0 mm in diameter. Postoperative course was very stable, and postoperative angiography revealed an excellent result.
