Case Report: Extended cardiopulmonary resuscitation in sudden cardiac arrest after acute myocardial infarction

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

We performed coronary angiography for the patient with ECMO support, indicating that the patient had an 80% critical stenosis of the left main coronary artery and an 80%–90% stenosis in the middle section of the left anterior descending artery with an aneurysm.

Abstract 4142012: Ectasias of Multiple Coronary Arteries and a Coronary Cameral Fistula Between Right Coronary Artery and Coronary Sinus

Circulation

Coronary angiography revealed a tortuous and extremely aneurysmal RCA, as well as multivessel coronary artery disease (mvCAD) involving LAD, D1, LCx, OM1. Notably, the LAD had multiple aneurysmal segments and areas of eccentric stenosis upto 90%.Multislice

Minimally Invasive Options For High-Risk Heart Surgery

MIBHS

This is much safer than traditional open heart surgery with a large chest incision that temporarily stops the heart while the patient is hooked up to a bypass machine. Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG): In a CABG, the surgeon makes a few small incisions so that only some parts of the arteries are exposed.

Pulmonary edema, with tachycardia and OMI on the ECG -- what is going on?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

There are no Q-waves to suggest old inferior MI, or inferior aneurysm as the etiology of the ST Elevation. Smith : "decompensation" of aortic stenosis might have initiated this entire cascade. What "initiates" the aortic stenosis cascade? The scan showed a bicuspid aortic valve with severe stenosis and coronary artery disease.
