I had a CTCA and it said
Left main stem with bifurcation anatomy

It means the vessel splits into 2 branches like a fork in the road
Yup, Catwifie is correct
The reason they note it is because if you have an occlusion (blockage) near the bifurcation it can make it slightly trickier to treat. Ask them about it and ask them to explain why they noted it xx
Thank you both, I will ask.
I’m guessing it’s just a normal anatomy variant for me? My CTCA showed no blockages, just a short segment of the LCX was not seen due to coronary motion artefact. All my other coronaries were normal and parent. X
