Coronary Plaque Disruption

C oronary plaque disruption, with consequent platelet aggregation and thrombosis, is the most important mechanism by which atherosclerosis leads to the syndromes of ischemic heart disease, including unstable anginal pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death. This insight has been obtained from clinicopathological studies extending over many years.'-'0 These studies have id...

Multiple plaque rupture in acute coronary syndrome.

Coronary Syndrome To the Editor: Rioufol et al1 recently reported a lower incidence of plaque rupture in culprit arteries than in non-culprit arteries (37.5% versus 79%) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The low incidence in culprit arteries was explained by thrombi that masked underlying ulcerations, but findings suggest that plaque rupture/thromboses do not directly induce symptoms in ACS (or...

Plaque Instability in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Hyperintense plaque with noncontrast T1-weighted magnetic resonance coronary plaque imaging leading to acute coronary syndrome.

A 73-year-old diabetic man underwent multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and noncontrast T1-weighted (T1W) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the evaluation of atypical chest discomfort after an exercise ECG was nondiagnostic. The MSCT demonstrated a low-density positive remodeling plaque and spotty calcification without significant stenosis in the proximal segment of the right coronary art...
