Medical - Medical (general) / coronary angiography
Spanish term or phrase: lesión pendiente
This is from the medical history of a patient undergoing coronary angiography:

Historia: angina moderada en paciente con PTCA a ADA y lesión pendiente en una gran diagonal.

How do we translate "lesión pendiente" here? (What type of lesion is this?)

Many thanks for your help.

Hola Joseph. En español es más común decir "lesión" y en inglés "stenosis". Ambos términos son intercambiables. Cualquiera que uses estará bien, personalmente usaría stenosis pero no tengo una base científica para sostener mi postura. ¡Saludos!

descending lesion


Explanation:
I took pendiente to mean an ascending lesion, but couldn't find anything related to that. The link talks about a descending diagonal lesion and there are other references if you write in "descending diagonal lesion".

old lesion


Explanation:
I think Liz is right about the "pending treatment". I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that maybe it's an old lesion in a large diagonal branch (one they have detected before, and are aware of, but due to the stenosis not being as dangerous as in some other artery, no intervention has been performed, so it's not resolved. They're monitoring it with angiography). In one of the urls below, they refer to "fresh" lesions, for instance ("only just detected"). There are probably a number of ways you could express this, even. I have never seen reference to the direction of a lesion, only to direction of vessels or the slope of a line (in the sense of a trend, value, etc. of a line)

not sure whether this refers to the nature of the lesion, i.e. dangling/hanging OR if is still awaiting treatment.

Also, am unable to find "lesión pendiente" as an entity per se

just

http://www.ripollydeprado.com/dr_ripoll/el-doctor-ripoll-rea...

Los doctores Ripoll y quesada han asistido a la enfermería del Elche CF para examinar a los jugadores con lesiones pendientes de recuperación.

Does you text mention the diagonal again/whether the patient is awaiting further surger/any other clues?

p.s.
I don't think dangling/hanging would make any sense

as "lésión" can sometimes just mean "diseased"

sometimes you just have to think of all the possibilities, however remote! even when some may seem a bit silly/illogical...

Asker: Hi Liz, very clever of you ... later in the report, it states that this is the site (the diagonal) that received the stent.
