  • Abstract
    The short left main trunk with early bifurcation is a common variation of the left coronary anatomy and is easily overlooked during antegrade selective cardioplegia resulting in the risk of single branch perfusion. We describe an obvious characteristic sign to detect this pitfall during blood cardioplegia.
