Myocardial Bridging of the Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery: Depiction Rate and Morphologic Features by Dual-Source CT Coronary Angiography
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the depiction rate and morphologic features of myocardial bridging (MB) of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) using dual-source CT (DSCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS CT scans from a total of 1,353 patients who underwent DSCT were reviewed retrospectively for LAD-MB. Seventy-eight patients were excluded due to poor image quality or poor enhancement of the coron...
متن کاملMyocardial bridging: depiction rate and morphology at CT coronary angiography--comparison with conventional coronary angiography.
PURPOSE To prospectively assess the depiction rate and morphologic features of myocardial bridging (MB) of coronary arteries with 64-section computed tomographic (CT) coronary angiography in comparison to conventional coronary angiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were simultaneously enrolled in a prospective study comparing CT and conventional coronary angiography, for which ethics com...
متن کاملA case of myocardial bridging over the right coronary artery diagnosed by coronary angiography
Angiographically evident myocardial bridges confined to the other arteries rather than the left anterior descending artery is very rare in the literature. Also cardiac computerized tomography studies and postmortem studies demonstrated that myocardial bridges are not as rare as the angiographic series and may be confined to the other arteries rather than the left anterior descending. We reporte...
متن کاملDiagnostic Value of 64-Slice Dual-Source CT Coronary Angiography in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Comparison with Invasive Coronary Angiography
OBJECTIVE We wanted to evaluate the image quality and diagnostic value of 64-slice dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) coronary angiography in patients with atrial fibrillation (Afib). MATERIALS AND METHODS The coronary arteries of 22 Afib patients seen on DSCT were classified into 15 segments and the imaging quality (excellent, good, moderate and poor) and significant stenoses (≥ 50%) wer...
متن کاملsurgery of symptomatic myocardial bridging
myocardial bridging with systolic compression of the left anterior descending coronary artery (lad) may be associated with myocardial ischemia. in symptomatic myocardial bridging unresponsive to medical treatment, surgical unroofing of the left lad can be performed. little information is available about the long-term prognosis of patients with this coronary anomaly after the surgical unroofing,...
