Abstract
We report the case of a 68-year-old patient, operated on in our department of a quadruple coronary bypass grafting. The grafting strategy consisted initially on harvesting the left internal thoracic artery and the left radial artery. The harvest of this latter failed because of a rare anatomical variation of the radial artery, which rose from the confluence of two branches: a superficial and a deep radial artery at the proximal third of the forearm approximately 10Â cm below the elbow.
