Woven Coronary Artery Anomaly: An Incidental Finding and Literature Review

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2022
Woven coronary artery anomaly is a rare description of an epicardial vessel segment that divides into multiple intertwining segments with eventual convergence of the distal vessel. We present our case, a 57-year-old male with an incidental woven coronary

Surgical and demographic predictors of free flap salvage after takeback: A systematic review

Microsurgery, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 78-88, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Microsurgical free tissue transfer (FTT) is a widely employed surgical modality utilized for reconstruction of a broad range of defects, including head and neck, extremity, and breast. Flap survival is reported to be 90%–95%. When FTT fails, salvage procedures aim at establishing reperfusion while limiting ischemia time—with salvage

Great Vessel and Coronary Artery Anatomy in Transposition and Other Coronary Anomalies [PDF]

JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
In patients with transposition of the great arteries, the identification of coronary anatomy is fundamental to optimal surgical outcome. A number of classifications describing the coronary vessels' origin and course in transposition of the great arteries have been published. However, all are limited to operative or pathological case series.

Identifying the culprit artery via 12‐lead electrocardiogram in inferior wall ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction: A meta‐analysis

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Sometimes the easiest way is the best. Simple methods as ST‐segment elevation in III > II and ST‐segment depression in aVL > I are effective diagnostic test for identifying culprit artery in inferior wall ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction. Complex algorithms are not superior to simple methods.

Surgical revascularization of a rare type IV dual left anterior descending artery—a case report

The Cardiothoracic Surgeon, 2022
Background Type IV dual left anterior descending artery (LAD) is a rare congenital coronary anomaly. Though benign with most of the patients being asymptomatic, knowledge of its existence and identification during coronary angiography is important during

Myocardial Perfusion Defects in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Mutation Carriers

Journal of the American Heart Association, EarlyView., 2021
Background Impaired myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the absence of epicardial coronary disease is a feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Although most evident in hypertrophied or scarred segments, reduced MBF can occur in apparently normal segments.

Altered hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 alpha expression levels correlate with coronary vessel anomalies [PDF]

Developmental Dynamics, 2009
AbstractThe outflow tract myocardium and other regions corresponding to the location of the major coronary vessels of the developing chicken heart, display a high level of hypoxia as assessed by the hypoxia indicator EF5. The EF5‐positive tissues were also specifically positive for nuclear‐localized hypoxia inducible factor‐1 alpha (HIF‐1α), the oxygen‐

Case Report: Anomalous Origin of the Right Coronary Artery From the Left Sinus of Valsalva With Aortic Dissection: New Myocardial Ischemia Mechanism

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
The aortic anomaly of the right coronary artery (AAORCA) originating from the left aortic sinus (LCS) is a rare malformation that may result in sudden cardiac death (SCD), which may be due to the dilated aorta-pulmonary artery affecting the blood supply ...

A New Variant of Dual Left Anterior Descending Artery Anomaly: Type XI

Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal, 2018
A dual left anterior descending (LAD) artery is a rare congenital anomaly which is classified into different types based on the origin, course and termination of the short and long LAD arteries. To date, 10 variants of dual LAD artery anomalies have been

Anomalous Origin of Right Coronary Artery from the Left Anterior Descending Artery: A Case Report

مجله علمی دانشگاه علوم پزشکی کردستان, 2022
Background and Aim: Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the left anterior descending artery is extremely rare. It is usually asymptomatic but can be associated with a risk of myocardial ischemia and sudden death.
