The modern treatment of coronary thrombosis with myocardial infarction.
C ORONARY thrombosis kills at least 200,000 people a year in the United States, and this figure will increase inexorably as the average age of our population continues to increase. It occurs in all ages but is predominantly encountered in persons over the age of 40. In general, it may be said that coronary thrombosis occurs at an average age which is approximately 6 years younger in men than in...
متن کاملCoronary spasm and thrombosis associated with myocardial infarction in a patient with nearly normal coronary arteries.
A 37-year-old man presented with an evolving inferior myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography performed within 3 hours after the onset of the pain showed spasm of the right coronary artery and the presence of intracoronary thrombi. After resolution of spasm and the disappearance of thrombi, angiography revealed nearly normal coronary arteries. An ergonovine test was positive when the patien...
متن کاملAcute transmural myocardial infarction--coronary vasospasm, thrombosis or coronary embolus? A case report.
A very fit 28-year-old Coloured athlete presented with an acute transmural anteroseptal and non-transmural anterolateral myocardial infarction (MI). He had no significant risk factors for coronary artery disease apart from moderate cigarette smoking. Cardiac catheterization 2 months later demonstrated a significant area of myocardial damage as well as a large mural thrombus, but the coronary ar...
متن کاملCoronary artery bypass graft surgery after acute myocardial infarction caused by thrombosis of coronary aneurysm.
The morphology of coronary aneurysm sets a predisposing factor to thrombus formation. However, the blood stasis caused by the change in flow may not be enough to cause thromboembolic events.
متن کاملIntegrin Beta-3 Gene Polymorphism and Risk for Myocardial Infarction in Premature Coronary Disease
Background: Contradictory results have been obtained regarding the role of integrin, beta 3 (ITGB3) gene polymorphisms in occurrence of myocardial infarction (MI). Objectives: We aimed to assess the association between 1565C/T polymorphism of ITGB3 gene and increased risk for acute MI in patients with premature coronary artery disease (CAD). <strong...
