Correspondência: Teresa Bastante • Universitario de La Princesa, Teresa Bastante – C. Diego de Leon, 62. CEP 28006, Madrid Espanha E-mail: [email protected] Artigo recebido em 18/03/14; revisado em 04/04/14; aceito em 04/04/14. Palavras-chave Tomografia de Coerência Ótica. Mulher de 60 anos foi internada devido a uma síndrome coronariana aguda. Angiografia coronariana mostrou dissecção espontânea da artéria coronária (DEAC) em artéria coronária descendente anterior esquerda (A). Observou-se também uma imagem típica de displasia fibromuscular (DFM) na artéria renal direita (B). A tomografia de coerência ótica (TCO) (C) mostrou áreas alternadas de espessamento e afinamento da camada média, correspondente à imagem típica de “colar de contas”, facilmente identificado na reconstrução longitudinal da TCO e também na angiografia.

Emergent left heart catheterization was performed and did not reveal any obstructive coronary artery disease, yet the ostium of the right coronary was thought to have spasm and non-selective injection was performed without revealing any obvious abnormality. Hence, a Computerized Tomography (CT) aortography of the chest...
متن کاملSpontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a non-traumatic and non-iatrogenic separation of the coronary artery wall that is now recognised as an important cause of myocardial infarction, especially in younger women. SCAD can be elusive on coronary angiography and clinician familiarity with non-pathognomonic angiographic SCAD variants and the use of intracoronary imaging will improve diag...

Fibromuscular dysplasia is a non-inflammatory and non-atherosclerotic arteriopathy commonly affecting medium-size renal, carotid, and vertebral arteries. Involvement of the coronary artery is very rare but may cause life-threatening spontaneous dissection. Because it is rare, this disease may go unrecognized. A unique angiographic finding of non-coronary arteries can make an early diagnosis, an...

BACKGROUND We previously described a strong association between fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and spontaneous coronary artery dissection. Angiographic manifestations of coronary FMD aside from dissection were considered rare. However, we observed several coronary FMD angiographic abnormalities with corresponding optical coherence tomography abnormalities. METHODS AND RESULTS Baseline demograp...
