Aterosklerozun Eşlik Ettiği Dev Sol Ön İnen Arter Anevrizması

55 yaşında erkek hasta kliniğimize tipik iskemik göğüs ağrısı ile başvurdu. Koroner anjiyografide sol ön inen arter (LAD) proksimal segmentinde fusiform tipte dev anevrizma, birinci diyagonal dalı hizasında önemli darlık, sirkumfleks arterinde önemli darlık ve sağ koroner arter total oklüde saptandı. Hastaya koroner arter baypas greft (CABG) operasyonu yapıldı. Bu olgumuzda aterosklerozun eşlik ettiği dev LAD anevrizmasını sunmayı amaçladık. Bu olgumuz literatürde görülen dev LAD anevrizmalarıdan biridir.

Giant Left Anterior Descending Artery Aneurysm Accompanied by Atherosclerosis

Having typical ischemic chest pain, 55-year-old male patient applied to our clinic. It was determined that in coronary angiography; giant aneurysm in the shape of fusiform in the proximal segment of left anterior descending (LAD) artery, significant stenosis in the first diagonal branch line; significant stenosis in circumflex artery and the total occlude in the right coronary artery. The patient was operated through coronary artery bypass greft (CABG). In this our case, we aimed to present the giant LAD aneurysm accompanied by atherosclerosis. This our case is one of the giant LAD aneurysms see in literature.
