Congenital Coronary Artery Obstruction Associated with Aortic Valve Anomalies
Coronary arterial obstruction associated with congenital aortic valve disease is rare in childhood. We studied two children with aortic valve disease and symptoms of coronary insufficiency. Cineangiography revealed localized obstruction of the proximal left coronary artery. In one patient, a membrane-like structure partially covered the left sinus of Valsalva, almost isolating the ostium of the...
متن کاملSudden Death, Sport Activities, and Coronary Anomalies
We read with interest the editorial written by Dr. Boraita1 on sudden death and sports. In general, we agree with most of the author ́s statements. However, we think that an echocardiographic study especially designed for the diagnosis of anomalies of the coronary arteries should be included in the athletic pre-participation cardiological examination (APCE). Anomalies of the coronary arteries ar...
متن کاملDecreased heart rate variability in survivors of sudden cardiac death not associated with coronary artery disease.
BACKGROUND Although heart rate variability has already been studied in survivors of sudden cardiac death secondary to coronary artery disease, an assessment of heart rate variability in survivors of sudden cardiac death not associated with coronary artery disease has not been made. METHODS 10 patients with aborted sudden cardiac death not associated with coronary artery disease (seven patient...
متن کاملImportance of Coronary Artery Disease in Sudden Cardiac Death
V entricular arrhythmias, pulseless electrical activity, and asystole can occur at the early stages of an acute coronary thrombotic occlusion, causing hemodynamic collapse, and resulting in “sudden cardiac death.” Recognizing this common pathway for adult cardiac arrest, the 2012 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the 2013 American College of Cardiology Foundation with the American Heart ...
متن کاملResuscitated sudden cardiac death due to diminutive coronary artery syndrome
Diminutive coronary artery syndrome (DCAS) refers to myocardial ischemia occurring as a consequence of coronary artery hypoplasia. DCAS was first described in 1964 in a report of 2 previously healthy men, aged 18 and 25, who suffered acute myocardial infarctions (MI) and were found on rudimentary coronary angiography to have hypoplastic right coronary arteries. Subsequent case reports have desc...
