| Popis: |
Woven coronary artery anomaly is a very rare vascular disease in which the etiology is unclear. The epicardial coronary arteries, in these cases, are separated by thin tunnels and have the shape of a hair braid. It is considered as a benign anomaly, but may be associated with ischemia and adverse cardiac events. In recent years, reported adverse events associated these cases have increased in the literature. We present here a woven case with coronary artery anomaly that was associated with myocardial ischemia and pulmonary edema and was successfully revascularized by percutaneous intervention. |
