Familial retinal arterial macroaneurysm (FRAM) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a gene mutation in the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP7).
We report a 30-year-old male with FRAM and IGFBP7 gene mutation who presented with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Invasive coronary angiography revealed a large aneurysm at the proximal part of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery.
Few cases with systemic vascular involvement in patients with FRAM have been described before; however, our case represents the first documentation of a LAD artery aneurysm in a patient with FRAM and IGFBP7 gene mutation.
家族性视网膜动脉大动脉瘤(FRAM)是一种由胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋白7(IGFBP7)基因突变引起的罕见遗传性疾病。
我们报告了一名患有FRAM和IGFBP7基因突变的30岁男性,他出现了急性冠状动脉综合征(ACS)。有创冠状动脉造影显示左前降支(LAD)动脉近端有一个大动脉瘤。
此前很少有关于FRAM患者出现全身血管受累的病例报道;然而,我们的病例是首例记录有FRAM和IGFBP7基因突变患者出现LAD动脉动脉瘤的情况。
