Anomalous origin of coronary arteries is rare, occurring in about 1% of patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Coronary atherosclerosis is not uncommon in these patients. Percutaneous angioplasty of anomalous coronary arteries poses a particular technical challenge secondary to the vessel characteristics. Stenting of the anomalous coronary arteries has not been described previously. We report a 47-year-old man with unstable angina in whom a MULTI-LINK coronary stent was placed successfully in an anomalous circumflex coronary artery.
冠状动脉异常起源较为罕见,在接受心导管检查的患者中约占1%。这些患者中冠状动脉粥样硬化并不少见。由于血管特征,经皮冠状动脉成形术对异常冠状动脉构成了特殊的技术挑战。此前尚未有关于异常冠状动脉支架置入术的报道。我们报告了一名47岁不稳定型心绞痛男性患者,其异常的左旋支冠状动脉成功置入了一枚MULTI-LINK冠状动脉支架。
