PLV - Posterolateral vein

I have just done exactly the same one - but the catheterisation reports from Nitra are usually pretty much identical.
RCx = CB
Then IMO it is a typo underneath that - it should be JR 4.0 6Fr not JHR
Peer comment(s):

disagree Misha Smid : I don't think that a vein can become a homocollateral for an artery. These are two different systems. PLV means "posterolaterální větev".

posterior left ventricular branch

When the LCX is dominant, it crosses the crux and gives off the posterior descending artery (PDA) and posterior left ventricular branches (PLV).
