Giant coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are rare coronary artery anomalies. The management of CAAs is still controversial because of the different possible pathophysiologies. In our case, tricuspid stenosis resulting from compression of the giant CAA was successfully relieved by CAA repair. As far as we know, this is the first reported case of compression by a giant CAA resulting in tricuspid stenosis.
巨大冠状动脉瘤(CAAs)是罕见的冠状动脉异常。由于不同的可能病理生理学机制,CAAs 的处理仍然存在争议。在我们的病例中,通过修复巨大 CAA 成功缓解了由巨大 CAA 压迫引起的三尖瓣狭窄。据我们所知,这是首例由巨大 CAA 压迫导致三尖瓣狭窄的报道病例。
