Abstract

Objectives: Coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) are rare cases that generally present with ischemic symptoms.Although coronary artery bypass surgery is widely performed in treatment, endovascular procedures have alsobegun being used in recent years. We describe a patient developing acute myocardial infarction due to CAAat a young age, despite the absence of any risk factor, followed by rapidly growing aneurysm. This patient wastreated with a hybrid approach, very rare case in the literature.
