Abstract
Internal mammary arteries are increasingly common conduits for coronary revascularization. Although infrequent, cardiologists are faced with a number of technical failures. We describe a case of combined PTCA to a LIMA insertion stenosis, along with coil embolization of a large unligated intercostal side branch. A complication of embolization is described along with angiographic follow‐up.Keywords
