Woven Koroner Arter Anomalisi: Tanı, Ayırıcı Tanı ve Klinik Yönetim
Özet
Otuz dört yaşında erkek hasta, atipik göğüs ağrısı, elektrokardiyografi (EKG) değişiklikleri ve yüksek duyarlılıklı kardiyak troponin yüksekliği nedeniyle ST yükselmesiz miyokard enfarktüsü (NSTEMI) ön tanısıyla değerlendirildi. Koroner anjiyografide sol ön inen arterin orta segmentinde çoklu ince kanallara ayrılıp distal segmentte yeniden birleşen, woven koroner arter anomalisi ile uyumlu görünüm izlendi. Distal Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3 akımın korunması, hastanın hemodinamik olarak stabil seyretmesi ve devam eden iskemi bulgusunun izlenmemesi nedeniyle konservatif medikal tedavi tercih edildi. Bu olgu, woven koroner arter anomalisi ile spontan koroner arter diseksiyonu, rekanalize trombüs ve kompleks aterosklerotik lezyon ayrımının klinik yönetim açısından önemini vurgulamaktadır.
A 34-year-old male patient was evaluated with a preliminary diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) because of atypical chest pain, electrocardiographic changes, and elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin. Coronary angiography revealed a characteristic appearance compatible with a woven coronary artery anomaly in the mid segment of the left anterior descending artery, consisting of multiple thin channels that separated and then rejoined distally. Because distal Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 3 flow was preserved, the patient remained hemodynamically stable, and there was no evidence of ongoing ischemia, conservative medical treatment was preferred. This case highlights the clinical importance of distinguishing woven coronary artery anomaly from spontaneous coronary artery dissection, recanalized thrombus, and complex atherosclerotic lesions, as this distinction may directly affect management.
