CongenItal Anomallous Origin of Left Anterior Descending Artery from RIight Coronary Artery
Congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries have been a known subject since the advent of cardiac angiography, and has been a subject of special interest by both cardiologists and cardiac surgeons, We have tried in this article to present a case of anomalous origin of LAD from RCA (RMT) in a 55 year old lady (Mrs. B.J.) and to completely discuss this subject. It's worthmentioning that thi...
متن کاملA Rare Case of Double Myocardial Bridges of the Left Anterior Descending Artery
Myocardial bridge is a benign congenital anomaly in which a segment of major epicardial coronary arteries descends into the myocardium for a variable distance. Myocardial bridge is most often single and located in the middle part of the left anterior descending artery. The presence of more than one myocardial bridge in coronary arteries is very rare. We present a patient with more than one myoc...
متن کاملSalvage angioplasty and stenting following spontaneous dissection of the left anterior descending coronary artery.
A 46 year old woman presented with sudden onset severe, tight, central chest pain. She had stopped smoking 10 years previously, but there were no other cardiac risk factors. The ECG showed sinus rhythm with marked ST elevation over the anterior chest leads, and she received intravenous tPA within two hours of symptom onset.

متن کاملAngiographic management of the left hepatic artery disruption following motor vehicle accident
Trauma is a leading cause of death in younger individuals. Blunt abdominal trauma has the potential to mask severe injuries-there can be serious organ or vascular injury underneath intact skin. Increasingly, there is a trend toward nonoperative management of blunt abdominal trauma. We report the case of a left hepatic artery transection managed in the interventional radiology suite.
متن کاملAssociation Between Left Anterior Descending Artery Length with Coronary Artery Dominance: An Angiographic Study
Introduction: Although left anterior descending (LAD) artery supplies a large portion of the myocardium, the amount of blood supply provided by LAD is depended on the length of the LAD. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the association between coronary artery dominance and LAD anatomic types in patients with normal epicardial coronary arteries. Methods:...
