RESUMO

We report the case of a 55-year-old woman with multiple comorbid conditions in whom acute left main coronary artery dissection occurred during attempted percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. After the dissection, the patient underwent emergency off-pump coronary revascularization of the left anterior descending coronary artery and ramus intermedius with use of the left internal thoracic artery and a saphenous vein graft, respectively. The procedure was successful.
