Computed tomography angiography for visualisation of distal coronary arteries and selection for surgical revascularisation in a patient with acute myocardial infarction.
Patients with symptomatic multivessel coronary artery disease rejected for coronary revascularisation have adverse prognosis. We describe a 61 year-old male with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction who was considered unsuitable for coronary revascularisation based on the conventional angiography findings. Unlike conventional angiography, computed tomography angiography visualised distal coro...
متن کاملDual-phase multi-detector computed tomography assesses jeopardised and infarcted myocardium subtending infarct-related artery early after acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES To investigate dual-phase multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) for assessing extent and severity of jeopardised and infarcted myocardium subtended by infarct-related artery (IRA), and its indication for revascularisation after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Designs, setting and PATIENTS Prospective, single-centre study included 107 patients with uncomplicated post-AMI 3-7 ...
متن کاملNon-Invasive Fractional Flow Reserve Estimation with Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide [1]. Myocardial ischemia results when myocardial blood flow is insufficient to meet demand; this causes symptoms and affects patient outcome [2]. According to current guidelines for the management of stable CAD, revascularisation should be guided by the presence of myocardial ischaemia. The treatment ...
متن کاملAnomalous Separate Origin of Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery: Presented as Acute Anterior Myocardial Infarction
Coronary artery anomalies are rare presentations in primary percutaneous coronary interventions of acute myocardial infarction. Herein, we report the case of a 59-year-old man with acute anterior myocardial infarction who had anomalous separate origin of left anterior descending artery (LAD) and left circumflex artery (LCX) from the left coronary aortic sinus. Coronary angiography showed a norm...
متن کاملAngina in fabry disease reflects coronary small vessel disease.
BACKGROUND Chest pain is frequently reported in Fabry disease (FD). However, its mechanism and clinical relevance are unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Basal troponin I level, exercise stress test, single-photon emission computed tomography imaging with (99m)Tc sestamibi, coronary angiography with thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count and left ventricular angiography and endomyo...
