A 49-year-old man was admitted to our hospital due to chest oppressive sensation. Coronary angiography showed total occlusion in the proximal right coronary artery even after intracoronary nitroglycerin, but no stenosis in the left coronary artery. He was treated with aspiration thrombectomy and stent deployment. After 23 hours, he suddenly had severe chest pain, and ECG showed marked ST elevation in leads I, aVL and V2-6. Surprisingly, coronary angiography showed total occlusion in the proximal left anterior descending artery even after intracoronary nitroglycerin where there had been no stenosis on first angiogram just 23 hours earlier. He was treated with aspiration thrombectomy.
