Abstract
Intraoperative detection of deeply embedded coronary arteries is difficult. This study describes an effective method to identify embedded coronary arteries by intraoperative cine angiography. Two embedded left anterior descending coronary arteries were successfully identified by intraoperative cine angiography. We believe that the intraoperative cineangiography is helpful for surgeons in this difficult situation.
