Abstract

Cholesterol crystal (CC) embolism is a disease in which CCs from atherosclerotic lesions embolize peripheral arteries, causing organ dysfunction. In this case, a patient with spontaneously ruptured aortic plaques (SRAPs) identified by non-obstructive general angioscopy (NOGA) may have developed a CC embolism. This is the first report of a CC embolism in a patient with SRAPs identified using NOGA, which further supports the previously speculated pathogenesis of CC embolism due to SRAPs.

非阻塞性普通血管造影发现的主动脉斑块自发性破裂患者体内的胆固醇结晶栓塞

胆固醇晶体（CC）栓塞是动脉粥样硬化病变产生的CC栓塞外周动脉，导致器官功能障碍的一种疾病。在本病例中，一名通过非阻塞性全身血管造影（NOGA）发现患有自发性主动脉斑块破裂（SRAPs）的患者可能发生了CC栓塞。这是首例通过非阻塞性全身血管造影（NOGA）发现患有自发性主动脉斑块（SRAPs）的患者发生CC栓塞的报告，进一步证实了之前推测的SRAPs导致CC栓塞的发病机制。
