Aortocoronary vein graft surgery in a cadaver kidney transplant recipient.

Abstract
A case of Prinzmetal angina occurred in a recipient of a cadaver kidney transplant who was treated with aortocoronary vein graft. The patient had severe retrosternal chest pain associated with ST-segment elevation in the precordial leads. Coronary arteriograms disclosed two major lesions in the proximal anterior descending artery. Aortocoronary vein graft was successfully performed with no untoward effect on the renal status. The patient has been free of angina approximately two years postoperatively.
