Coronary artery aneurysms are not very uncommon but 'giant' coronary artery aneurysms are rare, with a reported prevalence of 0.02% to 0.2%. Coronary artery aneurysm may be symptomatic or asymptomatic depending on their size and location but it is very unusual for a giant coronary artery aneurysm to be asymptomatic. Here, we present a case in which the giant coronary artery aneurysm remained undiagnosed and asymptomatic for several years.
冠状动脉瘤并不十分罕见,但“巨大”冠状动脉瘤却很罕见,据报道其患病率为0.02%至0.2%。冠状动脉瘤可能有症状,也可能无症状,这取决于其大小和位置,但巨大冠状动脉瘤无症状的情况非常少见。在此,我们报告一例巨大冠状动脉瘤多年未被诊断且无症状的病例。
