| coronary vessel anomalies | Defects of coronary arteries or veins including anomalous origin, arteriovenous fistula or aneurysm, myocardial bridging, or other abnormalities of structure or development. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| coronary vessels | The veins and arteries of the heart. (12 Dec 1998) |
| posterior coronary plexus | The portion of the cardiac plexus that accompanies branches of the coronary arteries on the posteroinferior surface of the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| internal mammary-coronary artery anastomosis | Direct myocardial revascularization in which the internal mammary artery is anastomosed to the right coronary artery, circumflex artery, or anterior descending coronary artery. The internal mammary artery is the most frequent choice, especially for a single graft, for coronary artery bypass surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| transluminal percutaneous coronary angioplasty | <cardiology, procedure> Dilatation of an occluded coronary artery (or arteries) by means of a balloon catheter to restore myocardial blood supply. (07 Mar 2000) |
| unroofed coronary sinus syndrome | <syndrome> A spectrum of cardiac anomalies in which part or all of the common wall between the coronary sinus and the left atrium is absent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| left coronary artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, left aortic sinus; distribution, it divides into two major branches, an anterior interventricular which descends in the anterior interventricular sulcus, and a circumflex branch which passes to the diaphragmatic surface of the left ventricle; gives atrial, ventricular, and atrioventricular branches. Synonym: arteria coronaria sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| left coronary artery branches | <radiology> Left anterior descending (LAD) artery, diagonal branches, septal branches (short br. at 90' angle), left circumflex artery (LCA), obtuse marginal branches (12 Dec 1998) |
| left coronary vein | <anatomy, vein> Begins at the apex of the heart (where it anastomoses with the middle cardiac vein), runs first with the anterior interventricular artery as it ascends the anterior interventricular groove, then turns to the left as it approaches or reaches the coronary groove to run with the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery; it merges with the oblique vein of the left atrium to form the coronary sinus. Synonym: vena cordis magna, left coronary vein, vena cardiaca magna. (05 Mar 2000) |
