Sağ koroner arterin miyokardiyal köprüleşmesi: Olgu sunumu

Miyokardiyal köprüleşme ana epikardiyal koroner arterlerin birinin miyokard içerisinde seyretmesidurumudur ve genellikle sol ön inen artere sınırlıdır. Anjiyografik değerlendirmede sağ koronerarterde miyokardiyal köprüleşme birkaç kez bildirilmiştir. Biz akut inferiyor miyokardiyalinfarktüs kliniği ile başvuran ve yapılan koroner anjiyografisinde sağ koroner arterde ciddi MKsaptanan 64 yaşında bir erkek hastayı sunduk.

Myocardial bridging of the right coronary artery: A case report

A myocardial bridge is defined as an intramyocardial course of a major epicardial coronary artery,and it is mainly confined to the left anterior descending coronary artery. There are rare reports ofright coronary myocardial bridge seen during angiographic examination. Herein, we present a 64year-old male patient who appired with the clinical findings of acute inferior myocardial infarctionand was found to have serious myocardial bridge in right coranary artery after coranaryangiography.
