Coronary steal caused by a right gastroepiploic artery graft
Abstract
We report a patient with coronary artery steal after gastroepiploic artery grafting to the right coronary artery. The coronary artery steal syndrome involves reversed flow in the gastroepiploic artery, which siphons blood from the heart and results in myocardial ischemia.
