ernstige stenose in het ostium van een grote gevorkte MO1 tak
severe ostial stenosis of a large bifurcated OM1 branch


Explanation:

it says 'ostium grote gevorkte MO1 tak'

this translates as 'ostium of a large bifurcated OM1 branch'

it doesn't say that the lesion is large but that the OM1 is large and that it is bifurcated

so it should be 'severe ostial stenosis of a large bifurcated OM1 branch'

in all

ernstige stenose in de proximale LAD en in het ostium (van een) grote gevorkte MO1 tak

= een ernstige stenose in de proximale LAD en een ernstige stenose in het ostium van een grote gevorkte MO1 tak

so, for example:

Coronary angiography showed severe proximal LAD stenosis and severe ostial stenosis of a large bifurcated OM1 branch.
