Evaluation of “coronary vasodilators” by coronary arteriography
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1964Abstract The primary purpose of a coronary vasodilator is to increase the caliber of the coronary vascular bed. Selective coronary arteriography currently is the most direct and effective means of evaluating changes in the size of the coronary arteries in the intact organism.

Compensatory enlargement of human atherosclerotic coronary arteries.
New England Journal of Medicine, 1987Whether human coronary arteries undergo compensatory enlargement in the presence of coronary disease has not been clarified. We studied histologic sections of the left main coronary artery in 136 hearts obtained at autopsy to determine whether ...

Coronary-Coronary Artery Bypass: An Alternative
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1987Occasionally, a patient with calcification of the ascending aorta will be unsuitable for conventional saphenous vein aortocoronary bypass. Similarly, when a patient is seen with saphenous vein (or internal mammary artery) of inadequate diameter or quality, another method of revascularization must be selected.

In a randomized, double-blind five-year trial, we tested the efficacy of simultaneously elevating serum levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and lowering levels of non-HDL cholesterol with gemfibrozil in reducing the risk of coronary ...

Coronary Angiography: Beyond Coronary Anatomy
Revista Española de Cardiología (English Edition), 2006Although technical advances enable normal epicardial coronary artery blood flow to be restored in most patients suffering myocardial infarction, restoration of blood flow is not always followed by improved myocardial perfusion. Recently, therefore, interest in the assessment of myocardial perfusion has grown, and a number of different assessment ...

Coronary spasm in patients with coronary ectasia
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1994AbstractThe incidence of coronary ectasia (CE) and the relationship between CE and coronary spasm that was said not to be apt to occur in patients with CE were studied. The study consisted of 1,373 patients (including 1,008 patients with ischemic heart disease) who underwent cardiac catheterization.

The pathogenesis of coronary artery disease and the acute coronary syndromes (2).
New England Journal of Medicine, 1992IN the 19th century there were two major hypotheses to explain the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis: the "incrustation" hypothesis and the "lipid" hypothesis.

Coronary thrombosis without coronary atherosclerosis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1969Abstract The case of a patient with extensive coronary artery thrombosis, with myocardial infarction but without coronary atherosclerosis, is presented. Although a review of the literature was not helpful in locating similar reports, the findings were thought to represent an exaggerated example of the process that ordinarily leads to myocardial ...

Coronary Sinus Stenosis With Right Coronary Artery to Coronary Sinus Fistula
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2019Coronary artery fistula is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. We report a 34-year-old woman who presented with a recurrent large pericardial effusion during pregnancy. She was found to have a right coronary artery to coronary sinus fistula. The coronary sinus was severely dilated due to coronary sinus ostial stenosis.
