ABSTRACT

No presente caso, relatamos a realização de angioplastia coronariana com implante de stent na artéria coronariana direita de paciente com quadro de angina instável de alto risco, portadora de artéria coronariana única com origem no seio coronariano direito. As artérias descendente anterior e circunflexa originavam-se isoladamente no terço proximal da artéria coronariana direita. Trata-se de rara anomalia coronariana com poucos relatos de intervenção coronariana percutânea na literatura. Este caso ilustra a necessidade da avaliação anatômica pormenorizada do trajeto das artérias coronarianas, precedendo a realização da angioplastia transluminal percutânea, objetivando-se a prevenção de complicações.


In the present case, we report the performance of coronary angioplasty with stent implantation in the right coronary artery of a patient with high-risk unstable angina and single coronary artery originating from the right coronary sinus. The anterior descending and circumflex arteries originated separately from the proximal third of the right coronary artery. This is a rare coronary anomaly and few reports of percutaneous coronary intervention are found in the literature. This case illustrates the need for a detailed anatomical assessment of the course of the coronary arteries prior to the performance of a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, with the purpose of preventing complications.
