Abstract

We present a case of extensive coronary atherosclerotic disease in a younger patient with an anomalous left coronary artery with transseptal course and show the utility of multimodality evaluation to determine the culprit lesion in patients presenting with this rare association. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
