Association Between Left Anterior Descending Artery Length with Coronary Artery Dominance: An Angiographic Study
Introduction: Although left anterior descending (LAD) artery supplies a large portion of the myocardium, the amount of blood supply provided by LAD is depended on the length of the LAD. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the association between coronary artery dominance and LAD anatomic types in patients with normal epicardial coronary arteries. Methods:...
متن کاملCoronary Artery and Pulmonary Artery Fistula Originated from Significant Stenosis in the Left Anterior Descending Artery
Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is defined as a rare anomalous connection between a coronary artery and a major vessel or a cardiac chamber. We report a case of a left anterior descending coronary (LAD) stenosis and coronary artery fistula between the LAD coronary artery and the pulmonary artery (PA). CAF is often diagnosed by coronary angiogram. We describe our diagnostic approach and review the...
متن کاملCongenItal Anomallous Origin of Left Anterior Descending Artery from RIight Coronary Artery
Congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries have been a known subject since the advent of cardiac angiography, and has been a subject of special interest by both cardiologists and cardiac surgeons, We have tried in this article to present a case of anomalous origin of LAD from RCA (RMT) in a 55 year old lady (Mrs. B.J.) and to completely discuss this subject. It's worthmentioning that thi...
متن کاملFistulous connection between the left anterior descending coronary artery and pulmonary artery.
DESCRIPTION A 65-year-old woman who had presented with exertional breathlessness was found to have severe mitral regurgitation secondary to mitral valve prolapse, on transthoracic echocardiography. She was admitted for diagnostic coronary angiography, prior to mitral-valve surgery. The major epicardial coronary arterieswere demonstrated to be free of disease, and left ventriculography confirmed...
متن کاملSingle coronary artery, anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the left anterior descending artery.
We present a patient with an abnormal origin of the right coronary artery from the left anterior descending artery. The patient had chest pain probably related to myocardial ischaemia. This anomaly is very rare and has previously been reported in only three cases. The abnormal vessel travelled rightwards and remained anterior to the main pulmonary artery, it was free of significant stenosis. Th...
