Abstract
Coronary artery disease involving both coronary ostia (left main and right coronary) is extremely rare in a premenopausal female, without pre-existing coronary risk factors. We report a case of tight bilateral coronary ostial disease which presented in unusual clinical circumstances in a young female, which was successfully revascularized by single-stage aorto-ostial cutting balloon angioplasty and stenting.
