Abstract

We report coronary angioplasty of the same coronary artery in identical twin sisters. The patients had similar risk factors but differed in their coronary anatomy. The angioplasties were carried out on the same day and by the same cardiologist. To our knowledge, this is the first reported follow-up of such a case.
