A young patient experienced two subsequent acute coronary syndromes due to left anterior descending (LAD) artery occlusion. Different ability of homocoronary collateral vessels to supply the ischemic territories, depending on the site of LAD artery occlusion, was associated with different clinical consequences. The case underscores the crucial role of the collateral circulation in limiting the effects of acute coronary occlusions.
一位年轻患者因左前降支(LAD)动脉闭塞经历了两次后续的急性冠状动脉综合征。根据 LAD 动脉闭塞的部位,同源冠状动脉侧支血管向缺血区供血的能力不同,与不同的临床后果相关。该病例强调了侧支循环在限制急性冠状动脉闭塞影响方面的关键作用。
