Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for the Anomalous Left Coronary Artery Originating from the Noncoronary Cusp.

ABSTRACT: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for anomalous left coronary artery (LCA) originating from the noncoronary cusp (NCC) is challenging, as it poses difficulties with the engagement of the guiding catheter and the establishment of backup support. This report examines the case of a 69-year-old woman with unstable angina of anomalous LCA origin. The computed tomography showed a diffuse plaque in the middle of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and an anomalous LCA originating from the NCC. After successful engagement of a straightened Judkins-Left diagnostic catheter, the angiography revealed a diffuse plaque in the middle of the LAD artery. We then engaged a Judkins-Right guiding catheter. Due to the weak backup support of the guiding catheter, we used another wire to stabilize it, and the stent was then implanted successfully. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of PCI for an anomalous LCA originating from the NCC.

Acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac arrest caused by anomalous left coronary artery arising from the noncoronary cusp.

Project description:Anomalous left coronary artery arising from the noncoronary cusp (LCANCC) is a rare congenital disorder. We herein describe a 17-year-old female patient with sudden cardiac arrest followed by refractory cardiogenic shock. LCANCC-induced acute myocardial infarction with left main coronary artery involvement was subsequently diagnosed, and the patient required a durable left ventricular assist device. <Learning objective: Anomalous left coronary artery arising from the noncoronary cusp is extremely rare, but poses a life-threatening condition. Coronary computed tomography angiography plays a crucial role for the assessment of high-risk anatomic features and decision-making for surgical repair.>.

A patient with anomalous right coronary artery originating from the left anterior descending artery who underwent complex percutaneous coronary intervention: A case report.

Project description:An anomalous right coronary artery (RCA) arising from the left anterior descending artery (LAD) is an extremely rare coronary anomaly. A 71-year-old patient presented with severe exertional angina for 10 days. Coronary angiography revealed that an anomalous RCA originated from the proximal LAD. The anomalous RCA had also critical ostial stenosis and the LAD had a critical lesion before origin of RCA (95%) and chronic total occlusion (CTO) at DII branch level. Furthermore, extremely tortuous circumflex (Cx) artery had critical tandem lesions at the mid portion. Surgical treatment was offered, but the patient refused the surgery. We decided to perform percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The first stage of PCI was on Cx artery. Two floppy guide wires were placed into the Cx artery and a long drug-eluting stent (DES) could be placed. Secondly, the LAD CTO lesion could be crossed by Confianza pro 9 wire. After the predilatation, another DES was placed into the LAD CTO region. Then all other significant lesions were successfully treated with PCI in a single session. <Learning objective: An anomalous right coronary artery (RCA) arising from the left anterior descending artery (LAD) is an extremely rare coronary anomaly. This is the first report of case of a patient with an anomalous RCA originating from the proximal LAD and complex coronary atherosclerosis, who underwent successful complex percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a single session. PCI may be an alternative treatment choice to surgery, especially in patients with high surgical risk and complex coronary anatomy.>.

Anomalous right coronary artery originating from the mid left anterior descending artery.

Project description:A 68-year-old male with a history of hypertension and hypercholesterolemia presented with recurrent episodes of chest discomfort. A 12-lead ECG and an echocardiogram were normal. A myocardial perfusion study could not rule out ischemia in the inferior wall. At coronary angiography using the transradial approach, the right coronary artery (RCA) could not be visualized. Angiography of the left coronary system demonstrated non-obstructive atherosclerosis involving the mid segment of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and a normal circumflex (Cx) artery. The RCA originated from the mid LAD segment distal to the first septal perforator and the first diagonal branch and was free of atherosclerosis disease. A contrast-enhanced 64-slice multi-detector cardiac computed tomography showed that the LAD was severely calcified in the proximal part, and the RCA coursed anterior to the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) to reach the right atrioventricular groove. The patient was managed medically and became asymptomatic.

Left main-like bifurcation primary percutaneous coronary intervention case report: anomalous right coronary artery ostium from the left anterior descending.

Project description:BackgroundA single coronary artery ostium (SCAO) is estimated to be present in 0.066% of the general population. The proximal coronary course and the relationship with surrounding structures are related to malignant vs. benign prognoses. We present a case of SCAO with the right coronary artery (RCA) arising from the mid-left anterior descending (LAD), complicated by anterior and inferior STEMI because of acute thrombotic occlusion at the bifurcation and its percutaneous management.Case summaryA 56-year-old male was admitted with sudden onset of resting chest pain. His ECG showed an anterior, inferior, and right ventricular STEMI. Via trans-radial access, coronary angiography showed significant stenoses at the left main and the circumflex but also a thrombotic occlusion at the proximal segment of the LAD while no RCA was seen. After crossing the LAD occlusion, the dominant RCA appeared from the mid-LAD. A provisional stent technique was performed achieving good results. Coronary computed tomography angiography showed an SCAO congenital anomaly with a patent stent in the bifurcation accompanied by diffuse coronary artery disease causing mild stenosis of the left main, proximal, and distal circumflex.DiscussionThe RCA arising from the mid-LAD with pre-pulmonic course has been described in only 37 cases. One reported an LAD/RCA bifurcation treatment with two stents technique in a stable scenario. The present is the first case reported of an acute thrombotic occlusion of an LAD/RCA bifurcation clinically resulting in a left main equivalent STEMI treated successfully with primary percutaneous coronary intervention using a bifurcation technique.

Catheter-induced aortocoronary dissection at the ostium of anomalous left coronary artery during percutaneous coronary intervention for acute inferior myocardial infarction.

Project description:We report a case of catheter-induced aortocoronary dissection at the ostium of anomalous left coronary artery (LCA) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute inferior myocardial infarction (MI). Urgent coronary angiography revealed the culprit lesion of MI was the proximal segment of the right coronary artery (RCA). The anomalous LCA arose from the right sinus of Valsalva the same as the RCA. Catheter-induced aortocoronary dissection at the ostium of RCA was extended to the ostium of anomalous LCA by contrast injection. The patient fell into hemodynamic collapse due to acute occlusion of the anomalous LCA. The patient underwent successful bailout stenting at the ostium of anomalous LCA under percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (PCPS). He was weaned from PCPS system five days after PCI and was discharged. This is the first report about bailout procedure for catheter-induced aortocoronary dissection at the ostium of anomalous LCA. <Learning objective: We present a case of catheter-induced aortocoronary dissection at the ostium of anomalous left coronary artery in a patient with acute inferior myocardial infarction. Anomalous origin of the coronary artery arising from the opposite sinus of Valsalva is a rare congenital anomaly. Aortocoronary dissection is also a rare but well-known complication during cardiac catheterization. Precise information on anatomy of anomalous coronary arteries is essential for percutaneous coronary intervention and attention should be paid to the potential risk of complications.>.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting for Revascularization of Left Main Coronary Artery Disease.

Project description:Owing to a large-jeopardized myocardium, left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) represents the substantial high-risk anatomical subset of obstructive coronary artery disease. For several decades, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been the "gold standard" treatment for LMCAD. Along with advances in CABG, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has also dramatically evolved over time in conjunction with advances in the stent or device technology, adjunct pharmacotherapy, accumulated experiences, and practice changes, establishing its position as a safe, reasonable treatment option for such a complex disease. Until recently, several randomized clinical trials, meta-analyses, and observational registries comparing PCI and CABG for LMCAD have shown comparable long-term survival with tradeoffs between early and late risk-benefit of each treatment. Despite this, there are still several unmet issues for revascularization strategy and management for LMCAD. This review article summarized updated knowledge on evolution and clinical evidence on the treatment of LMCAD, with a focus on the comparison of state-of-the-art PCI with CABG.
