“CORONARY TORTUOSITY” A CAUSE OF MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA

Journal Title: European Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 10

Abstract

Coronary artery tortuosity is a common angiographic finding. Its relation with coronary artery disease is not clear. Patient with coronary tortuosity and without significant obstructive coronary artery disease may present with chronic stable angina. These patients are often labeled as normal coronaries and remained symptomatic with angina on exertion. Coronary artery should be recognized as non-obstructive cause of myocardial ischemia.
