Hypoplastic coronary artery disease is a rare congenital coronary artery anomaly. It is often detected incidentally, and its true incidence in the general population is not known.
Symptoms of HCAD are syncope, palpitations, dyspnea, and chest pain. Also, arrhythmia and myocardial infarction can be seen; these can cause sudden death, especially in athletes and young people. Diagnosis is often made at autopsy.
Here, we present the case of a 39-year-old male with isolated hypoplasia of the left circumflex artery detected by coronary Computed Tomography (CT) angiography who complained of palpitation.
发育不全性冠状动脉疾病是一种罕见的先天性冠状动脉异常。它常为偶然发现,其在普通人群中的真实发病率尚不清楚。
发育不全性冠状动脉疾病的症状有晕厥、心悸、呼吸困难和胸痛。此外,还可见心律失常和心肌梗死;这些可导致猝死,尤其是在运动员和年轻人中。诊断通常在尸检时做出。
在此,我们报告一例39岁男性病例,该患者通过冠状动脉计算机断层扫描(CT)血管造影检测发现左回旋支动脉孤立性发育不全,患者主诉有心悸。
