Update on Myocardial Bridging [PDF]

Circulation, 2002
Muscle overlying the intramyocardial segment of an epicardial coronary artery, first mentioned by Reyman1 in 1737, is termed a myocardial bridge, and the artery coursing within the myocardium is called a tunneled artery (Figure 1). It is characterized by systolic compression of the tunneled segment, which remains clinically silent in the vast majority ...

Myocardial bridging as a cause of acute myocardial infarction: a case report

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2002
Background Systolic compression of a coronary artery by overlying myocardial tissue is termed myocardial bridging. Myocardial bridging usually has a benign prognosis, but some cases resulting in myocardial ischemia, infarction and sudden cardiac death ...

Complete Myocardial Bridging. [PDF]

JACC Case Rep
Myocardial bridging is an anatomical variant in which coronary arteries course within the myocardium rather than on the epicardial surface. Complete intramyocardial coronary systems are extremely rare and can lead to significant clinical consequences.An 18-year-old man with left ventricular noncompaction cardiomyopathy experienced chest pain and ...

Kounis Syndrome together with Myocardial Bridging Leading to Acute Myocardial Infarction at Young Age [PDF]

Case Reports in Medicine, 2011
Kounis syndrome, also named as “allergic angina syndrome,” is a diagnosis in which exposure to an allergen causes mostly coronary spasm and rarely plaque rupture, resulting in ischemic myocardial events.

Symptomatic Myocardial Bridging Treated by Coronary Stenting

Majalah Kardiologi Indonesia, 2014
Background : Myocardial bridging is a congenital coronary anomaly with mostly benign course throughout life. However, several pathological clinical manifestations may accompany myocardial bridging, such as arrhythmia, angina, depressed left ventricular ...

SURGERY OF SYMPTOMATIC MYOCARDIAL BRIDGING [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2007
Myocardial bridging with systolic compression of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) may be associated with myocardial ischemia. In symptomatic myocardial bridging unresponsive to medical treatment, surgical unroofing of the left LAD can ...

Dual Case Report: Symptomatic Myocardial Bridging Managed with Calcium Channel Blockers [PDF]

Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports
Background: Myocardial bridging (MB) is a congenital coronary artery anomaly in which a segment of an epicardial coronary artery, most commonly the left anterior descending (LAD) artery, courses intramyocardially, and undergoes systolic compression ...

Myocardial Bridging Unmasks as an Acute Coronary Syndrome from Dehydration

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2021
A 50-year-old male presented for loss of consciousness. He was initially treated with intravenous epinephrine and fluids, and an electrocardiogram (ECG) displayed an ST-segment elevation in lead aVR with global ST-segment depressions.

Disappearance of myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending coronary artery after inferior myocardial infarction

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2014
Myocardial bridging (MB) is defined as the intramural course of a major epicardial coronary artery, and is mostly confined to the left ventricle and the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD).
