A – A 12-lead admission electrocardiogram showing anterior ST segment elevations in leads V1-V3 with no anterior Q waves and no ischemic changes in inferior leads. B – emergent coronary angiography showing occlusion of the proximal segment of the right coronary artery (RCA) beyond the right ventricular branch. C – selective intubation of the left coronary artery showed left-dominant coronary circulation with no significant coronary artery disease. D – restoration of TIMI-3 flow in the RCA following drug-eluting stent (2.25 × 18 mm) implantation – after reperfusion RCA was revealed as a gracile and non-dominant vessel
