Abstract

Coronary ectasia is an infrequent angiographic lesion commonly seen in stenotic coronary arteries. It may result in angina pectoris, even in myocardial infarction due to impaired coronary blood flow. A 70-year-old woman presented with chest pain that occurred after physical activity and lasted nearly 30 minutes. There were no pathologic findings except for a 2/6-degree systolic murmur on the left sternal border. Electrocardiography showed T-wave inversions in leads III, AVF, and V1-V3. Her chest pain did not recur following medical therapy in the coronary intensive care unit. Coronary angiography performed with the diagnosis of acute non-ST elevation myocardial infarction revealed segmental ectasia in both the left anterior descending and right coronary arteries without any obstructive lesion. The patient was discharged with medical therapy. She was followed-up for six months without chest pain.

Özet

Koroner arter ektazisi genellikle aterosklerotik koroner arter hastalığında görülen nadir bir anjiyografik lezyondur. Bozulmuş koroner kan akımına bağlı olarak angina pektorise, hatta miyokard infarktüsüne bile yol açabilir. Yetmiş yaşında kadın hasta, fiziksel aktivite sonrası oluşan ve yaklaşık 30 dakika süren göğüs ağrısı şikayetiyle başvurdu. Fizik muayenede, sol sternal sınırda 2/6 şiddetinde duyulan sistolik üfürüm dışında patolojik bulguya rastlanmadı. Elektrokardiyografide III, AVF ve V1-V3 derivasyonlarında T dalgası dalgalanmaları gözlendi. Koroner yoğun bakım ünitesinde uygulanan ilaç tedavisinden sonra hastada göğüs ağrısı olmadı. Akut ST yükselmesiz miyokard infarktüsü tanısıyla uygulanan koroner anjiyografide sol ön inen arter ve sağ koroner arterde segmental ektazi görüldü; herhangi bir tıkayıcı lezyona rastlanmadı. İlaç tedavisi verilerek taburcu edilen hastada altı aylık takip dönemi içinde göğüs ağrısı tekrarlamadı.
