Radiation-induced heart disease is a well-known complication but rare entity.In this study we present our surgical approach to the high risk left main coronary artery stenosis in a case who received irradiation due to malignancies of two separate systems.Surgical revascularization of the coronary lesions has good long-term results. © Internet Scientific Publications, LLC.
