Percutaneous coronary saccular aneurysm exclusion.

Abstract

Coronary artery aneurysms are a relatively uncommon finding during coronary angiography and can present certain challenges in terms of treatment options. This may be due to unclear underlying mechanisms and varying presentations, as well as a lack of large-scale outcome data. In this case report we present the successful use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in treating a 43-year-old male patient who presented with acute myocardial infarction and was discovered during angiography to have a saccular coronary aneurysm.
