%X Ostial lesions present many challenges for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Coronary anomaly will further increase difficulties in performing PCI for the patient. We present such a case as ostial occlusion of an right coronary artery with high takeoff. A 77-year-old male was referred to our institution with a diagnosis of non-ST elevated acute myocardial infarction. Selective coronary angiography and nonselective ascending aortography could not identify the origin of the right coronary artery. Multi-slices computed tomography showed RCA ostial totally occluded. A successful PCI was performed and a perfect final result was achieved utilized with many tips and tricks, including "buddy wire" technique and "focused-force" angioplasty.
