| Popis: | We reviewed the last 911 coronary arteriograms performed in our laboratory because of chest pain. Among 215 patients with single-vessel disease, 40 had stenosis in the right coronary artery and 43 in the left circumflex. This finding conflicts with previous reports. Perhaps racial differences could explain this discrepancy. |
