Optimal Coronary Evaluation and Management of Patient with Shepherd`s Crook Right Coronary Artery
Shepherd’s crook deformity of right coronary artery is a unique condition of dramatic upturn with a near 180oC switchback turn. It is a challenge for interventionist to perform percutaneous coronary intervention in case of severe tortuous artery with atherosclerosis. Many tips, techniques and devices have been developed to overcome technical issues. We present an interesting case of 64-year-old male with extreme tortuosity of RCA who had difficulty in assessing the lesion characteristics.
