Exercise-Induced Myocardial Ischemia Due to Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery Distal Aneurysm

Abstract

Abnormal dilation of coronary artery is called coronary artery aneurysm or ectasia. Its frequency has been found in 3-8% in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Although most of the patients are asymptomatic, some cases may have effort angina, unstable angina and myocardial infarction. We purposed to a case with stable angina pectoris who have left anterior descending coronary artery distal aneurysm.
