Clinical expression of coronary artery ectasia
Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is an uncommon finding at cardiac catheterisation. Our objective was to retrospectively assess the angiographic prevalence of CAE and its clinical expression.From January 1999 to June 2001, 3870 consecutive patients underwent coronary angiography at our catheterisation laboratory.The prevalence of CAE was 3.6%.

Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is associated with an increased risk for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A significant proportion of patients with AMI have no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), however, the underlying mechanism of myocardial infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is poorly understood.

Clinical significance of coronary arterial ectasia
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1976In a study group of 2,457 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac catheterization, 30 patients had coronary arterial ectasia, an irregular dilatation of major vessels up to seven times the diameter of branch vessels. The frequency of hypertension, abnormal electrocardiogram and history of myocardial infarction was greater than that in a control group ...

Adiponectin levels in coronary artery ectasia
Heart and Vessels, 2009Etiopathogenesis of coronary artery ectasia (CAE), which is defined as abnormal dilatation of a segment of the coronary artery to 1.5 times of an adjacent normal coronary artery segment, is unclear. However, it is speculated that CAE develops in the atherosclerosis process through degeneration of coronary artery media layer. Our objective in this study

Although underlying mechanisms of coronary artery ectasia (CAE) are clearly unknown, destruction of extracellular matrix may be responsible for the ectasia formation. Thus, we investigated the role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases (TIMP-1), and inflammatory markers [high-sensitive C-reactive protein ...

Coronary artery ectasia is an uncommon expression of coronary artery atherosclerosis and other diseases. It occurs in about 1.4 percent of the adult population. It is not distinguishable from obstructive coronary artery disease in severity of angina, clinical presentation, electrocardiograms, mortality, or outcome of coronary artery surgery.

Coronary Artery Disease, 2016
Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is defined as a segment of the coronary artery that has a diameter of more than 1.5 times the normal adjacent segments. It was described many years ago, but many aspects of this phenomenon are still unknown. It can be found in 1.2-2% of patients referred for coronary angiography. Risk factors are similar to atherosclerosis,

Relation of coronary artery ectasia to diabetes mellitus
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2004An increased prevalence of coronary artery ectasia (CAE) and a low frequency of diabetes mellitus have been reported in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The prevalence of diabetes was studied in 190 patients with CAE in comparison with 341 age- and gender-matched patients with coronary artery disease alone.
