Right Coronary Artery Post-stenotic Giant Saccular Aneurysm that is Managed by Graft Stenting after Revascularization of Aneurysmatic Lad Lesion for Acute Anterior STEMI

Abstract

Coronary artery aneurysms (1.5 times dilation the reference-vessel) are uncommon and have been diagnosed with increasing frequency with coronary angiography. The frequency of CAA varies widely, from 0.3% to 5%, and complications include thrombosis, embolic phenomena, arteriovenous fistulisation, spasm, rupture with haemopericardium and sudden death [1]. We present a case giant saccular RCA aneurysm that requiring urgent revascularization by graft stenting without surgical intervention after successful culprit LAD revascularization in 65 year old patient for anterior STEMI.

Keywords: Giant coronary saccular aneurysm; Ventricular fibrillation; Graft stenting
