Abstract

Woven coronary artery anomaly (WCAA), division of epicardial coronary artery into many long and thin channels twisting along the vessel axis course after a few centimeters to merge to form the main lumen again is a rare disorder that is not illuminated yet. Here by presenting this case of left anterior descending (LAD) artery WCAA which is incidentally diagnosed in a patient with inferior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and causing reversible ischemia in anterior and anterior septum; would like to remind the interventional cardiologist this entity one more time.
