چکیده

Introduction. The left main stem coronary artery (MSCA) thrombosis is a rare, but potentially lethal manifestation of the acute syndrome. standard approach in treating such patients primary percutaneous intervention or bypass graft surgery. In some cases, depending on morphological appearance thrombus, findings and flow rates assessed angiography, clinical conditions, cardiologist?s experiences, another method treatment may be conservative using antithrombotic therapy. Case report. A 37 year-old male was admitted to emergency room with symptoms an myocardial infarction ST-elevation diaphragmal localization. Using angiography we have visualized thrombus at ostial proximal part MSCA, no complete obstruction blood flow. Initially, dual therapy (ticagrelor acetylsalycilic acid) applied, further procedure , it decided introduce glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa platelet receptor inhibitor (tirofiban) as intracoronary bolus (0.3 ?g/kg) later continuous infusion (0.1 ?g /kg/min). Four days later, control intravascular echocardiography were performed, continue therapy, without pPCI procedure. patient discharged good condition signs illness eighth day after hospital admission for home recovery, planned frequent follow-ups future. Conclusion. case non-obstructive thrombotic masses significant atherosclerotic stenotic lesions, modality use aggressive considered.

Left Main Coronary Artery Spasm in a Hyperthyroid Patient with Suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome

The left main coronary artery (LMCA) vasospasm is rare. We report a suspected acute coronary syndrome patient with hyperthyroidism who had LMCA vasospasm. Coronary angiogram showed 60% stenosis at LMCA. After administering nitroglycerin, re-angiography showed no significant stenosis. Then we evaluated LMCA lesion using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) showing no significant stenosis. We consider...
