Detailed explanation-2: -The left main coronary artery has two smaller branches: the circumflex artery and the left anterior descending (LAD) artery. Healthcare providers use the term “bifurcation” to refer to this type of arterial branching. The circumflex artery is within your heart’s outer protective layer, the epicardium.
