français term

PMC

français vers anglais Médecine Médecine (général) Diagnosis - heart disease abbreviation
An elderly patient whose summary I am translating.

There is a listing in his medical history introduced by the title:

MCAS
s/p PAC + PMC 1985, stents x2 sur PAC 1997

I take MCAS to mean CAD
s/p = status post
PAC - coronary artery catheterization

I am uncertain about PMC.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Nothing came up when I searched by "PMC."

Thanks for the help!

internal thoracic artery graft This term was dealt with previously on Proz. Go to http://www.proz.com/kudoz/french_to_english/medical_cardiolo...

PAC is probably "pontage aorto-coronarien".

Internal Mammary Artery Graft

Please see "Liste des sigles" PMC: pontage mammarocoronarien

PAC is pontage aorto-coronarien also according to this list.

The patient seems to have received both a CABG with a vein graft and by the use of an IMA, Internal Mammary Artery.
