OM

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Cardiology medical report
Hola!

This appears on a medical report in the Intervencionismo RX - Coronariografia section as follows:

TCI sin lesiones. Estenosis severa y larga de DAp que afecta a salida de 1 OG[unclear]. Estenosis severa (70%) de DAd, CX codominate con lesión moderada (40%) de OM. CD codominate sin enfermedad.

Can anybody confirm whether or not this means the Obtuse marginal artery (OMA)?

Many thanks

OM

Obtuse marginal branch (OM)
Ref:
The circumflex artery gives off up to three obtuse marginal branches and may give off a left posterolateral branch and may supply the inferior interventricular artery

Peer comment(s):

agree Chema Nieto Castañón : Sí, obtusa marginal tiene todo el sentido aquí (también llamada marginal izquierda, left marginal artery, aunque el acrónimo inglés habitual aquí es efectivamente OM, obtuse marginal branch -of the (L)Cx).
