متن کاملSystolic compression of left main coronary artery by left ventricular pseudoaneurysm complicated by critical stenosis of left main coronary artery
A 69-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with complaints of exertional substernal chest pain and dyspnea for 3 weeks. His medical history consisted of dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and valvular heart disease. He had a mitral commissurotomy through a left thoracotomy for mitral stenosis at age 16 years followed by mitral valve replacement with a 25 mm Carpentier Edwards bovine pe...
متن کاملLeft main coronary artery stenosis.
Between 1 January, 1989, and 28 April, 1990, a total of 888 selective coronary arteriographies were performed at the Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine in Prague. Of that number, 58 findings were assessed as at least 50% stenosis of the left main coronary artery (LCA). Having applied exclusion criteria, 50 patients (i.e., 5.63% of all those examined) were entered into a retrospect...
متن کاملLeft Main Coronary Artery Stenosis
A retrospective study was carried out in 114 unoperated and 197 operated patients having left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenosis 2 50%. Including the operative mortality of 9.1%, survival at seven years was significantly greater following pure aortocoronary bypass graft surgery, 77.5% as compared to 48.5% for the unoperated patients (P < 0.01). The surgical mortality was significantly less du...
متن کاملusing workload to predict left main coronary artery stenosis in candidates for coronary angiography
background: coronary angiography, albeit a safe procedure, may cause serious complications especially in patients with left main stenosis (lms). this study was designed to investigate the efficacy of workload achieved by exercise tolerance test (ett) in predicting lms in candidates for coronary angiography. methods: a total of 743 patients with a positive ett who subsequently underwent cardiac ...
