Unique single coronary artery with acute myocardial infarction: observation of the culprit lesion by intravascular ultrasound and coronary angioscopy.
We report an acute myocardial infarction in a patient with a single coronary artery. The right coronary artery arose from the middle portion in the left anterior descending artery through the transverse branch. This type of single coronary artery has not been previously reported. Moreover, this is the first report in which the culprit lesion in a patient with a single coronary artery was observ...
متن کاملLesion characteristics of acute myocardial infarction: an investigation with intravascular ultrasound.
OBJECTIVE To use intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to compare plaque morphology in acute myocardial infarction and stable angina pectoris. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Primary care hospital. PATIENTS 59 consecutive cases of acute myocardial infarction and 50 consecutive cases of stable angina pectoris. METHODS IVUS was used before coronary intervention. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Plaq...
متن کاملComputed tomography coronary angiography in patients with acute myocardial infarction without significant coronary stenosis.
BACKGROUND It is known that a significant number of patients experiencing an acute myocardial infarction have normal coronary arteries or nonsignificant coronary disease at coronary angiography (CA). Computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) can identify the presence of plaques, even in the absence of significant coronary stenosis. This study evaluated the role of 64-slice CTCA in detecti...

متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction without significant coronary stenosis: evaluation by LE-CMR and CT coronary angiography
Introduction It is known that 9-31% of women and 4-14% of men with AMI have normal coronary arteries or non significant coronary disease at angiography. These patients represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging can detect and quantify myocardial scar. Multislice computed tomography can non invasively identi...
