Abstract

Most cases needing coronary angiography were sent to the UK at that time. The first case of Coronary Angiography I performed was a young airline Pilot from an African country (probably Nigeria) who had come to Karachi for training with PIA. He had some chest pains, and his ECG showed deep T wave inversions in his chest leads2. A board was set up at NICVD to recommend that he be sent to the UK for it.
