Amaç: Sol ana koroner arter (SAKA) başta olmak üzere majör koroner arterlerin çapları, yapılacak revaskülarizasyon tedavilerinin başarısı için önemli bir öngördürücüdür. Uluslararası literatüre bakıldığında çeşitli popülasyonlarda koroner arterlerin anjiyografik bulgularına dair yayınlar görülmektedir. Amacımız Türkiye’nin Doğu Akdeniz bölgesindeki bir toplulukta SAKA ve majör epikardiyal arterlerin çaplarını “Quantitative Coronary Analysis” (QCA) yazılımı ile incelemek, koroner anjiyografik bulguları ve dağılımlarını ortaya koymaktı.

Gereç ve Yöntem: 2016 yılında koroner arterleri normal saptanan 1139 hasta retrospektif olarak çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların anjiyografi görüntüleri incelendi ve QCA yazılımı aracılığıyla koroner arter çapları değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışma grubumuzda 528 kadın (%46,4), 611 erkek (%53,6) yer alıyordu. Ortalama yaş 57,3±11,4 yıl idi. Hipertansiyon sıklığı %46,3 (527 hasta) ve diyabetes mellitus sıklığı %12,2 idi (139 hasta). Sigara içen hasta sayısı 497 idi (%43,6). İntermedier arter 183 hastada görüldü (%16,1). Az gelişmiş sağ koroner arter 106 (%9,3), az gelişmiş sirkumfleks arter 56 (%4,9) ve az gelişmiş sol ön inen arter 1 (%0,1) hastada saptandı. Proksimal ve distal SAKA çapı ve alanı erkeklerde anlamlı olarak daha fazlaydı. Vücut yüzey alanına göre endekslendiğinde bu farkın ortadan kalktığı saptandı.

Sonuç: Çalışmamız Türkiye’nin Doğu Akdeniz bölgesinde koroner arter çaplarının incelenmesine yönelik en geniş kapsamlı çalışmadır. Bulgularımız genel olarak beyaz ırk verilerine benzerdir. Çeşitli popülasyonlara ait SAKA proksimal, distal çapları, uzunluğu ve alanına ilişkin verileri içeren yayınlar ile uluslararası literatürün daha da zenginleşeceğine inanmaktayız.

Objective: Major coronary artery (CA) diameters, including those of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) are important predictors of the success of revascularization therapies. In the international literature, there are some studies regarding angiographic CA findings in various populations. Our aim was to assess the LMCA and major CA diameters with Quantitative Coronary Analysis (QCA) software, and to report their distributions of East Mediterranean Turkish population.
Materials and Methods: In 2016, 1139 patients who had normal CA were retrospectively included. Angiographic views were evaluated and CA diameters were measured using QCA.

Results: There were 528 women (46.4%), and 611 men (53.6%) in our study group. The mean age was 57.3±11.4 years. Hypertension frequency was 46.3% (527 patients), and the frequency of diabetes mellitus was 12.2% (139 patients). There were 497 smoking patients (43.6%). The intermediate artery was seen in 183 (16.1%) patients. There were 106 (9.3%) rudimentary right CAs, 56 (4.9%) rudimentary circumflex arteries, and 1 (0.1%) rudimentary left anterior descending artery. Proximal and distal LMCA diameters and their circular areas were significantly greater in men. When coronary artery diameters were indexed to body surface area, there was no difference between genders.

Conclusion: Our work is the largest scale study regarding quantification of coronary artery diameters of East Mediterranean Turkish population. Our findings are similar to those of Caucasians in general. We believe that the international literature will become richer with studies containing information regarding proximal and distal diameters, lengths, and areas of LMCA in various populations
