conclusions this case indicates that delineation of coronary artery anatomy in atypical congenital giant right atrial aneurysm is of vital importance. closure of the aneurysmal sac, instead of aneurysmal resection, is a safer and more simple approach in atypical cases. case presentation this is a report on a 3.5-month-old male infant with imperforated anus and an unusual-shaped congenital giant...

the left ventricular aneurysm is one of the most significant complications of myocardial infarction and is defined as the expansion of the ventricular wall. the coronary artery aneurysm is characterized by an abnormal dilation of the localized portion of the coronary artery, and its main cause is atherosclerosis. we herein report an unusual case of coronary artery and left ventricular aneurysms...

Coronary aneurysms in adults are rare clinical entities. Herein, we presented a 54-year-old man who was admitted with an acute extensive anterior myocardial infarction. The emergency coronary angiography revealed an isolated large aneurysm at the proximal segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The patient was successfully treated with a graft-coated stent

there are many treatment modalities available to acutely terminate incessant ventricular tachycardia with variable success rates, but some cases tend to prove refractory to all of them. we report a 59-year-old woman presenting with incessant ventricular tachycardia. echocardiography revealed a large true apical aneurysm and severe left ventricular dysfunction. the arrhythmia was controlled in t...

the major complication of kawasaki disease is coronary artery dilatation and aneurysm. it occurs in approximately 15-25% of untreated children with kawasaki disease. early diagnosis and treatment with intravenous immune globulin (ivig) and aspirin (asa) can reduce the incidence of coronary artery abnormality to 2%-5%. we report one case of atypical kawasaki disease with multiple giant coronary ...

Coronary artery fistulas are a very rare cardiac anomaly. The reported Incidence of coronary artery fistula is 0.10.2% in all patients undergoing coronary angiography [1]. 26% of the patients with coronary artery fistula have associated coronary artery aneurysm. Giant coronary artery aneurysms with diameter exceeding 50 mm are extremely rare. As the aneurysm enlarges, complications related to v...

Brachiocephalic artery aneurysm with concomitant coronary artery aneurysm is rare. We describe a case of a patient with a history of prosthetic graft placement following resection of an abdominal aortic aneurysm and was subsequently found to have a brachiocephalic artery aneurysm. After surgical correction of the brachiocephalic aneurysm, postoperative coronary arteriography demonstrated corona...

Background Kawasaki disease (KD) also known as mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome is the febrile and self-limited vasculitis that occurs in children of all ages, especially younger than five years of age. Here, we describe a case of Kawasaki disease with coronary artery aneurysm and a big clot in LV with a diameter of 1.5 cm. <stron...

Coronary artery aneurysms are noted in 0.15% to 4.9% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Atherosclerosis accounts for 50% of coronary aneurysms in adults. We report a 64-year-old female with a huge right coronary artery aneurysm with fistula connecting the aneurysm with the pulmonary artery and a fistula connecting the proximal left anterior descending artery with the pulmonary artery....
