At that time she had a giant coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) of the proximal right coronary artery and severe 3 vessel disease including a severe ostial right coronary artery stenosis, severe stenosis of the proximal and mid left anterior descending artery (LAD) and a totally occluded left circumflex artery.
