[Aneurysms of the common trunk, anterior descending and right coronary artery in a 33 years old man with acute myocardial infarction. A case report].
Coronary artery aneurysms are often incidental findings during coronary angiography; they are mostly secondary to atherosclerosis or vasculitis, they are rarely congenital. Right coronary circumflex and anterior descending arteries are usually involved but only few cases of aneurysms of left main coronary artery are reported. A case of coronary artery aneurysms is described involving left main, right and anterior descending coronary arteries, probably secondary to atypical Kawasaki disease in a 33 years old man with acute myocardial infarction.
