LM bifurcations with markedly angulated LAD vessel and severe proximal stenosis. (a) Direction of blood flow was marked with Arabic numerals and white arrow, and the order contrast appeared was LM, LCX, to LAD. (b) The balloon (2.5mm in diameter) predilation in LM-LCX after wring first guide wire in the LCX vessel. (c) The reverse wire tip (as white arrow) directs into the ostium of the LAD vessel. (d) Angiographic image obtained after the PCI.
