Association between the bifurcation angle and the angle of the origin of the left anterior descending with the severity of coronary artery disease.

Key Result

Wider LAD-LCX and LM-LAD angles were directly and significantly associated with greater severity of proximal left anterior descending artery stenosis.

Key Points

• The study aims to explore the relationship between bifurcation angles and the severity of coronary artery disease, particularly in the left anterior descending artery.
• Analyzed the bifurcation angles of the LAD-LCX and LM-LAD
• Measured severity of pLAD stenosis
• Utilized angiographic techniques for evaluations
• Wider bifurcation angles correlate with greater pLAD stenosis severity
• Significant direct association between LAD-LCX and LM-LAD angles and pLAD stenosis
