Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are defined as variants of normal epicardial coronary arteries. They are mostly detected incidentally during coronary angiography. Clinical studies have shown that abnormal origins and courses of coronary arteries make them more prone to atherosclerosis. Percutaneous treatment for atherosclerotic occlusions in anomalous coronary arteries has some difficulties, including inadequate guiding-catheter support and the need for an experienced operator. Here, we describe successful percutaneous coronary interventions for critical stenoses in 2 different CAAs and present a brief literature review.
冠状动脉异常(CAAs)被定义为正常心外膜冠状动脉的变异。它们大多在冠状动脉造影时偶然被发现。临床研究表明,冠状动脉的异常起源和走行使其更容易发生动脉粥样硬化。经皮治疗异常冠状动脉中的动脉粥样硬化闭塞存在一些困难,包括导引导管支撑不足以及需要经验丰富的操作者。在此,我们描述了对2种不同的冠状动脉异常中的严重狭窄进行成功的经皮冠状动脉介入治疗,并进行简要的文献综述。
