Coronary artery aneurysms are localized dilatations greater than 1.5 times the diameter of the adjacent segments. These rarely seen abnormalities may lead to serious life-threatening complications such as myocardial infarction, coronary perforation and death. Here, we present a case of periprocedural thromboembolic inferior myocardial infarction arising from a proximal right coronary artery saccular aneurysm during a diagnostic coronary angiography in a stable 70-year-old patient.
冠状动脉瘤是指局部扩张超过相邻节段直径1.5倍的病变。这些罕见的异常情况可能导致严重的危及生命的并发症,如心肌梗死、冠状动脉穿孔和死亡。在此,我们报告一例70岁稳定型患者在诊断性冠状动脉造影期间,因右冠状动脉近端囊状动脉瘤引发围手术期血栓栓塞性下壁心肌梗死的病例。
