Myocardial bridgin in an adult with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a rare congenital coronary artery anomaly. It is often detected incidentally, and its true incidence in the general population is not known. Myocardial bridging may cause compression of a

Myocardial bridging in the course of coronary arteries and its clinical significance
Background: Sudden death in young adults in absence of any risk factor related to coronary arterial disease has been reported. It could be because of some unrecognized congenital coronary artery anomalies like myocardial bridging.

A Heart with Multiple Coronaries Anomalies: Myocardial Bridging, Left Dominance and High Takeoff of Ostia-An Autopsy Case [PDF]
Myocardial bridging is a segment of coronary artery that runs intramurally through the myocardium. Though it is commonly seen in the anterior interventricular artery and less commonly in right coronary artery, it can cause limitation in the blood flow ...

Human myocardial bridging is a normal anatomic variation in which a coronary artery is bridged by a short segment of myocardium. It can cause variable degrees of systolic obstruction. The majority of patients are asymptomatic. A wide variety of syndromes can occur, including myocardial infarction and sudden death.

SUMMARYWe present a case of myocardial bridging, which was seen following urgent cardiac catherisation for post‐infarction unstable angina in a 55‐year‐old man who was initially admitted with an acute inferior myocardial infarction.

A CASE OF PAINLESS MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION DUE TO BRIDGING OF LEFT ANTERIOR DESCENDING ARTERY
Myocardial bridging (MB) is congenital abnormality of the coronary arteries, which typically does not interfere with long term prognosis, but in some cases can cause myocardial infarction and other life-threatening conditions.

Myocardial bridging is a rare event, which leads to chest pain, arrhythmias and discussable Takotsubo syndrome (cardiomyopathy). We enrolled 41 patients (33 females, mean age 68.4 years), the majority of whom had Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in any form ...

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