Abstract
Each year, more than 300 million patients worldwide undergo non-cardiac surgery. Perioperative myocardial infarction (MI) is a common cardiovascular complication of surgery; thus, we sought to determine coronary artery anatomy in patients referred for coronary angiography for the evaluation of perioperative MI after non-cardiac surgery.
