Angiography use has become increasingly common worldwide. Coronary artery aneurysm may be an incidental finding during angiography. Occasionally it might be symptomatic or may become symptomatic over the course of time. Rupture of aneurysm may lead to disastrous complications. Here we present a case in which aneurysm was asymptomatic but surgical intervention was done because of rapid increase in the size of aneurysm. This is to drive home the point that timely surgical intervention is instrumental in preventing complications associated with possible rupture of the aneurysm.
血管造影术的应用在全球范围内日益普遍。冠状动脉瘤可能是血管造影术中的偶然发现。偶尔它可能有症状,或者随着时间推移可能会出现症状。动脉瘤破裂可能导致灾难性并发症。在此我们呈现一例动脉瘤无症状但因动脉瘤大小迅速增加而进行手术干预的病例。这是为了强调及时的手术干预对于预防与动脉瘤可能破裂相关的并发症至关重要这一点。
