ABSTRACT
Myocardial abscess usually occurs as a complication of infective endocarditis or over-whelming septicemia. Coronary artery occlusion caused by myocardial abscess has been rarely reported. A 61-year-old man presented with fever and chill that developed 6 weeks prior to admission. He had a history of cardiopulmonary resuscitation for ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest 4 weeks prior to admission. Echocardiography showed a 3 x 4cm sized mass in the area of the right atrioventricular groove and coronary angiography showed complete occlusion of the proximal right coronary artery. Under the diagnosis of myocardial infarction complicating myocardial abscess, debridement of abscess and coronary artery bypass grafting with right internal mammary artery to distal right coronary artery was performed. Culture from the abscess cavity demonstrated Salmonella arizona.
