Abstract

Trans thoracic echocardiography study of the coronaries is a potentially important diagnostic tool for coronary evaluation, both as a preliminary to an invasive procedure. We reported the case of a non-STEMI event, in a patient with a hypoplastic left anterior descending coronary artery, earlier suspected after trans-thoracic echocardiogram.
