Abstract
A case study is presented in which the bronchial steal syndrome is demonstrated by stress thallium-201 myocardial perfusion imaging. The various aspects of the syndrome are discussed. We conclude that bronchial steal syndrome may provoke severe myocardial ischaemia even in the absence of coronary artery stenosis.
