Abstract

Acute coronary syndrome is rarely observed in young adults and atherosclerosis is occasionally responsible in the etiology. The coronary arteries are normal in 25 % of the young adults who had a MI and the most common risk factor is smoking in these patients. in such young cases much more detailed laboratory tests are needed than the elderly to enlight the etiology. Although the etiology could not have been definitely elucidated, this young patient suffering AMI despite normal coronary arteries is presented to discuss the subject.

Özet

Gençlerde akut koroner sendrom seyrek olarak görülmektedir ve ateroskleroz bu vakalarda nadiren akut koroner sendromdan sorumludur. Miyokard infarktüsü geçiren genç populasyonun %25 kadarında koroner arterler normal olarak saptanmaktadır. Miyokard infarktüsü geçiren ve koroner arterleri normal olan hastalarda en sık rastlanan risk faktörü sigara kullanımıdır. Bu tür vakalarda etiyolojinin aydınlatılması için yaşlı koroner arter hastalarına oranla daha ileri laboratuvar tetkiklerine başvurulmalıdır. Etiyolojik tanı kesinleştirilememesine rağmen "genç yaşta ve normal koroner arter anatomisi ile akut miyokard infarktüsü geçirmesi" nedeni ile konunun irdelenmesi açısından bu olgu sunulmuştur.
