Abstract
We report a case of 61-year-old man with an intriguing differential diagnosis between two often interchangeably ambiguous coronary conditions, successfully resolved through the application of OCT and physiological assessments. This clinical scenario highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach for achieving a thorough understanding of complex coronary pathologies.
