Anatomy of Coronary Vessels [PDF]

open access: possible, 2011
This chapter presents a description and illustration of the anatomic features of the coronary vessels. It first deals with the typical course and important variations of each major artery and then with anatomy of the veins, both as seen anatomically and in imaging, pairing coronary arteriograms and CT angiograms. Understanding coronary vessels’ anatomy

Anatomy of the Coronary Vessels [PDF]

open access: possible, 1976
The two main coronary arteries, the right and the left, originate from the aorta (Ao); in about half the population, a third artery, the so-called conus artery (CA), also originates from the Ao.

Coronary Angiodysplasia of Epicardial and Intramural Vessels

Chest, 2000
A case of coronary angiodysplasia combining large aneurysms of epicardial arteries with diffuse malformation of intramural vessels is reported. Clinical presentation may mimic a vascularized cardiac tumor. Although leaking of the aneurysms in the pericardial space may occur, this entity seems to have a benign prognosis not requiring surgical repair.

Small Coronary Vessel Disease and Sudden Coronary Death

Medicine, Science and the Law, 1989
In an attempt to determine the importance of atherosclerosis in medium-sized coronary arteries, the hearts of 20 patients dying of cardiac disease, within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms, were compared with 19 controls. Post-mortem coronary angiograms were performed and the coronary arteries dissected in detail.

Atherosclerotic involvement of coronary branch vessels

Atherosclerosis, 1986
The atherosclerotic involvement of coronary branch vessels (first diagonal, first septal, posterior descending, left and right marginals, conus and the vessels supplying the conduction system) was investigated in 450 apparently healthy subjects aged 11-55 years who died of accidental causes.

Epicardium and Coronary Vessels

Congenital anomalies and acquired diseases of the coronary blood vessels are of great clinical relevance. The early diagnosis of these conditions remains, however, challenging. In order to improve our knowledge of these ailments, progress has to be achieved in the research of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that control development of the ...

Regulation of coronary resistance vessels and large coronary arteries

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1985
There is now considerable evidence for alpha-adrenergic regulation of coronary resistance vessels and large coronary arteries based on studies of chronically instrumented, conscious animals. Infusion of norepinephrine at low doses causes reduction of coronary blood flow with a slight increase in arterial pressure, indicating intense coronary ...

Blood Flow in Coronary Vessels

1989
The anatomical characteristics of the coronary circulation are summarized (Gregg and Fisher 1963; Berne and Rubio 1979; Marcus 1983) as follows: Two major coronary arteries (Fig. 6.1), a right and left, arise respectively from the right anterior and left anterior aortic sinuses of Valsalva.

Blood/Vessel Interaction in Coronary Disease

Hospital Practice, 1984
Considerable experimental evidence suggests that the interaction of platelets and endothelium is important in the pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis and acute myocardial infarction. Platelet involvement in sudden cardiac death and coronary artery spasm is equally clear, but here the question is whether platelets play a causal or a secondary role.

Functional importance of coronary collateral vessels

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1984
Angiographically demonstrable coronary collateral vessels are believed to preserve myocardial function at rest, but disagreement exists regarding the importance of collaterals in mitigating exercise-induced ischemic dysfunction. Therefore, we used radionuclide cineangiography during exercise to assess the left ventricular (LV) functional effects of ...
