Abstract
The incidence of arteriosclerosis of the right gastroepiploic artery (RGEA) has not been widely known. We experienced one patient in whom the RGEA had severe diffuse atherosclerotic lesions and luminal narrowing, and was therefore determined to be unsuitable as a coronary bypass conduit at operation.
