Anomalous origin of the right coronary artery and acute myocardial infarction: Cause or coincidence?
چکیده انگلیسی

Congenital coronary artery anomalies are one of the causes of myocardial ischemia and sudden death in the young, mainly during sports. Origin of the right coronary artery from the left anterior descending artery is very rare, with a prevalence of 0.015%, corresponding to 1.2% of all coronary artery anomalies. The authors present the case of a 22-year-old man, with a history of cocaine use, admitted to hospital with a non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed the presence of this rare coronary anomaly and the absence of atherosclerotic luminal stenosis, and so it was assumed to be a type II infarction caused by cocaine-induced vasospasm of the anomalous vessel.

ResumoAs anomalias coronárias congénitas são uma das causas de isquemia miocardica e morte súbita em jovens, principalmente durante a prática desportiva. A origem da artéria coronária direita na descendente anterior é muito rara, com uma prevalência de 0,015% e correspondendo a 1,2% das anomalias coronárias congénitas. Os autores apresentam o caso clínico de um homem de 22 anos, consumidor de cocaína, internado por enfarte agudo do miocardio sem supradesnivelamento de ST. O cateterismo mostrou a presença desta anomalia coronária rara e a ausência de lesões ateroscleróticas luminais, pelo que se assumiu tratar-se de um enfarte agudo do miocárdio tipo II secundário a vasospasmo do vaso anómalo induzido pela cocaína.
