conclusions coronary artery aneurysm should be a differential diagnosis in cases of mediastinal cyst and mass lesion. case presentation a 32-year-old woman presented with edema of the upper and lower limbs, palpitation, and chest pain, and was diagnosed with a giant right coronary artery aneurysm that had initially mimicked a mediastinal cyst. although computed tomography (ct) suggested a media...

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 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 aneurysm is defined as any coronary artery dilation exceeding the diameter of normal adjacent segments or the diameter of the largest coronary artery by 1.5 times. Giant coronary aneurysm refers to an aneurysm with a diameter larger than 20 mm. Giant coronary artery aneurysms have an incidence of 0.02%-2%. Here we describe a patient who had giant coronary aneurysms involving all...

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...

RATIONALE Coronary artery aneurysms and fistulas are not rare conditions in clinical practice, but bilateral fistulas with a giant coronary aneurysm in just one person are quite rare. PATIENT CONCERNS We report a case of a 66-year-old woman with these 2 coronary abnormalities accompanied with a huge mediastinum mass. INTERVENTIONS The giant aneurysm was ligated and the mass was resected whi...

A 74-year-old man underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Thirteen years later, he presented with complaints of exertional anterior chest oppression again. Computed tomography coronary angiography revealed the significant stenosis at the mid right coronary artery (RCA). In addition, a giant proximal left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) was found. We did not obse...

The combination of a giant coronary aneurysm with multiple coronary aneurysms in adults is an extremely rare entity--especially in atherosclerotic patients, since it is most commonly associated with Kawasaki disease in children. We report an interesting case of a 59-year-old male patient with multiple atherosclerotic aneurysms of the left coronary system and a giant aneurysm of the right corona...

Coronary artery fistula (CAF) with giant aneurysm and accompanied by coronary artery stenosis is a very rare disease. Herein, we report a case of a 76-year-old woman having a complex coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula associated with a giant aneurysm and accompanied by coronary artery stenosis. The patient was successfully treated using transcatheter coil embolization and coronary stent impla...
