While cardiac disease is noted in 90% of patients with Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA), the finding of coronary artery disease is unusual. To the best of our knowledge only two cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been reported in patients with FRDA. Large vessel CAD has not been reported previously in patients with FRDA. We report a young patient with AMI and obstruction of large epicardial arteries.
虽然在90%的弗里德赖希共济失调（FRDA）患者中可发现心脏疾病，但冠状动脉疾病的发现并不常见。据我们所知，仅有两例FRDA患者发生急性心肌梗死（AMI）的病例报告。此前尚未有FRDA患者发生大血管冠状动脉疾病（CAD）的报告。我们报告了一名患有AMI且心外膜大动脉阻塞的年轻患者。
