Current perspectives in coronary microvascular dysfunction

Microcirculation, 2017
AbstractThe coronary arterial system consists of large epicardial coronary arteries, pre‐arterioles, and arterioles, which together closely regulate CBF. Structural, functional, and extravascular abnormalities of the microcirculation lead to CMD. CMD can present with symptoms suggestive of CAD, often in the absence of significant obstructive epicardial

Microvascular Coronary Dysfunction—an Overview

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2018
We will review the available data on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of microvascular coronary dysfunction (MCD).The study of MCD was pioneered by the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) cohort. New techniques in the diagnosis of this condition, using invasive and noninvasive means, are helping to increase awareness

Pharmacological approaches to coronary microvascular dysfunction

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2014
In recent decades coronary microvascular dysfunction has been increasingly identified as a relevant contributor to several cardiovascular conditions. Indeed, coronary microvascular abnormalities have been recognized in patients suffering acute myocardial infarction, chronic stable angina and cardiomyopathies, and also in patients with hypertension ...

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD)

2020
Over the past two decades, coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) has emerged as an important mechanism of myocardial ischemia. This chapter describes various pathogenic mechanisms of CMD and explains how CMD can result from functional and/or structural alterations to the vessel wall and lead to varying degrees of disruption to normal coronary ...

Coronary microvascular dysfunction in primary cardiomyopathies

Heart, 2013
Myocardial ischaemia is usually caused by abnormalities of the epicardial coronary arteries. In the past 30 years, however, several studies have shown that abnormalities in the coronary microcirculation may also cause or contribute to myocardial ischaemia in several conditions.

Iatrogenic Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction

2013
CMD can occur in several patients undergoing PCI or CABG. In the setting of PCI, CMD is mainly caused by distal embolization, which most frequently occurs during treatment of saphenous vein grafts. In about one-third of patients distal embolization causes infarctlets, which are suggested by a transient increase of markers of myocardial necrosis and can

Coronary microvascular dysfunction: Phenotype-specific targeted therapies

Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine
Coronary microvascular dysfunction has always been a clinical entity that is often underdiagnosed and with limited therapeutic options. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive view of the pathology, correlating it with specific syndromic presentations to which it is often linked, and based on these, propose tailored diagnostic and therapeutic

Vascular Remodeling in Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging
Approximately one-half of the patients with angina and nonobstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA) have evidence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD).This study aims to characterize patients with ANOCA by measuring their minimal microvascular resistance and to examine the pattern of vascular remodeling associated with these measurements.The ...

[Coronary microvascular dysfunction. An update].

Recenti progressi in medicina, 2011
Several studies in the last years have shown that a dysfunction of coronary microcirculation may be responsible for abnormalities in coronary blood flow and some clinical pictures. Coronary microvascular dysfunction, in absence of other coronary artery abnormalities, can cause anginal symptoms, resulting in a condition named microvascular angina (MVA).
