Opis:
Introduction. Cardiovascular disease is the first cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Among several known risk factors, researchers also focus their attention on the chronic exposure to air pollution. There is much evidence that exposure to air pollution, especially to ultrafine particles, can damage the endothelium and can favour cardiovascular diseases in the general population. Occupational exposition could be an additive risk factor for the cardiovascular system. This article presents a scientific review of the linkage between occupational exposure to air pollution and ischemic heart disease. Materials and method. A scientific review was undertaken, followed by PRISMA Statements. Observational studies were selected from several scientific databases, likesuch as Pubmed, Google Scholar, Nioshtic-2 and Reserchgate, searching for selected key words: police workers, professional drivers, mail carriers, filling station attendants, road cleaners, garage workers, motor vehicles and engine maintenance. All the key words were combined with “Boolean Operators” with the following words: cardiovascular (or cardiac) disease, cardiovascular function, cardiovascular system, ischemic heart disease, coronary disease, myocardial infarction. During the systematic research, the focus was on retrospective and prospective studies from January 1990 – December 2014. Results. Both the retrospective and prospective studies showed an increased risk of ischemic heart disease in occupationally occupied people exposed to air pollution. Only one study presented a ly minor risk. Conclusions. The findings of this systematic review suggest a possible linkage between occupational exposure to urban air pollution, especially to motor exhaust and particulate, and ischemic heart disease.

Opis:
INTRODUCTION: Acute myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation in the inferior leads suggests an acute occlusion of the right coronary artery (RCA). Occlusion of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) usually causes ST segment elevation in the precordial leads and reciprocal ST segment depression in the inferior leads. But ST segment elevation in the inferior leads due to occlusion of the LAD is uncommon. MATERIAL AND METHODS: It’s the clinical case of 60-year-old previously healthy man presented inferior STEMI. Physical examination, urgent coronarography, some laboratory and instrumental tests were performed. RESULTS: A 60-year-old previously healthy man presented to an outpatient clinic with complaints of intensive burning retrosternal chest pain with irradiation to the left hand that had started half an hour before.ECG revealed ST segment elevation in leads II, III, aVR, aVF, V4-V6 and reciprocal ST segment depression in the lead aVL.Coronary angiography was performed: there was left coronary artery dominance, RCA was intact, subocclusion of the proximal LAD was found; “slow flow” phenomenon was noted. A drug-eluting stent was introduced into the proximal LAD. CONCLUSIONS: Inferior acute myocardial infarction can be caused by untypical branch of coronary artery and it’s belongs to rare clinical cases.
WSTĘP: Ostry zespół wieńcowy z uniesieniem odcinka ST w odprowadzeniach znad ściany dolnej sugeruje ostrą niedrożność prawej tętnicy wieńcowej (RCA - right coronary artery). Zwężenie lewej przedniej tętnicy zstępującej (LAD - left anterior descending) zwykle powoduje uniesienie odcinka ST w odprowadzeniach przedsercowych i jednoczesne obniżenie odcinka ST w odprowadzeniach znad ściany dolnej. Ale uniesienie odcinka ST w odprowadzeniach znad ściany dolnej z powodu niedrożności LAD jest rzadkie. MATERIAŁ I METODY: Klinicznym przypadkiem 60-letniego wcześniej zdrowego mężczyzny był OZW STEMI ściany dolnej. Wykonano badanie fizykalne, pilną koronarografię, wybrane testy laboratoryjne i instrumentalne. WYNIKI: 60-letni wcześniej zdrowy mężczyzna zgłosił się do kliniki zgłaszając silny piekący ból w klatce piersiowej promieniujący do lewej ręki, który rozpoczął się pół godziny wcześniej. EKG wykazało uniesienie odcinka ST w odprowadzeniach II, III, aVR , aVF, V4-V6 i obniżenie odcinka ST w odprowadzeniu aVL. Wykonano angiografię tętnic wieńcowych: pozostawiono dominację lewej tętnicy wieńcowej, RCA była nienaruszona, znaleziono niedrożność proksymalneh LAD. Odnotowano zjawisko „wolnego przepływu”. Stent uwalniający i lek wprowadzono do proksymalnej LAD. WNIOSKI: Ostry zespół wieńcowy ściany dolnej może być spowodowany nietypowo niedrożnością gałęzi tętnicy wieńcowej LAD i należy do rzadkich przypadków klinicznych.

Opis:
INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular diseases, including coronary disease and its complications, are the most common cause of death. Myocardial infarction is usually caused by a blood clot cosing the lumen of a coronary artery at the site of an unstable atherosclerotic plaque. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All the analyzed patients with mechanical complications of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were hospitalized at the 2nd Department of Cardiology and Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care of the Upper-Silesian Medical Centre in Katowice in 2006–2016 and the database was based on the medical records of the patients. The study group comprised 52 (100%) patients. There were 23 (44.2%) women and 29 (55.8%) men, aged 54 to 84 years with a mean age of 69.8 years. RESULTS: Ventricular septal rupture (n = 36; 69.2%) was the most frequently observed complication but papillary muscle rupture (n = 4; 7.7%) and tendinous chord rupture (n = 4; 7.7%) were the least frequent. Hypertension and hypercholesterolemia were the most common risk factors for coronary heart disease in the study group. An increased mortality rate was observed in patients who received pharmacological treatment compared to surgically treated patients (87.5% vs. 61.4%). The majority of patients had one risk factor for coronary heart disease (28; 53.8%). CONCLUSIONS: 1. In the study group, ventricular septal rupture and the cardiac free wall rupture were the most frequently observed mechanical complications of AMI. 2. Patients with AMI had numerous risk factors for coronary heart disease, of which hypertension and hypercholesterolemia were the most common. 3. Patients with mechanical complications of AMI had both higher mortality rates than survival and they were higher in the pharmacologically treated group.
WSTĘP: Choroby układu krążenia, w tym choroba wieńcowa i jej powikłania, stanowią najczęstszą przyczynę zgonów. Zawał mięśnia sercowego spowodowany jest zwykle pęknięciem blaszki miażdżycowej i zamknięciem tętnicy wieńcowej skrzepliną. MATERIAŁ I METODY: Badaniem objęto 52 chorych (100%) z mechanicznymi powikłaniami ostrego zawału serca, hospitalizowanych w II Oddziale Kardiologii oraz Oddziale Anestezjologii i Intensywnej Terapii Górnośląskiego Centrum Medycznego w Katowicach w latach 2006–2016, wtym 23 kobiety (44,2%) i 29 mężczyzn (55,8%) w wieku 54‒84 lat (średnia wieku 69,8 roku). WYNIKI: Najczęstszym powikłaniem było pęknięcie przegrody międzykomorowej (n = 36; 69,2%), natomiast do najrzadszych należały pęknięcie mięśnia brodawkowatego (n = 4; 7,7%) i pęknięcie ścięgien (n = 4; 7,7%). Nadciśnienie i hipercholesterolemia były najczęstszymi czynnikami ryzyka wystąpienia choroby niedokrwiennej serca w badanej grupie. Zwiększoną śmiertelność zaobserwowano u pacjentów leczonych farmakologicznie (87,5%), podczas gdy śmiertelność pacjentów leczonych operacyjnie wynosiła 61,4%. U większości pacjentów występował jeden czynnik ryzyka choroby wieńcowej (n = 28; 53,8%). WNIOSKI: 1. Najczęstszymi powikłaniami były pęknięcie przegrody międzykomorowej i pęknięcie ściany serca. 2. U pacjentów występowało wiele czynników ryzyka dla choroby niedokrwiennej serca, spośród których najczęstszymi były nadciśnienie i hipercholesterolemia. 3. Śmiertelność w badanej grupie chorych z mechanicznymi powikłaniami ostrego zawału serca znacznie przewyższała przeżywalność i była większa w grupie leczonych zachowawczo.

Opis:
There is a growing number of elderly patients, so it is necessary to create new standards of oncologic care for such individuals in order to provide them with the best possible treatment. An elderly woman was treated for locally advanced small-cell lung cancer. Due to the suspicion of coronary disease, arterial hypertension and age, anti-cancer treatment with carboplatin and etoposide was recommended. When carboplatin infusion came to a stop, signs of myocardial infarction in ECG as well as elevated levels of troponin I were reported. Originally, non-invasive treatment was introduced, but several days later three DES stents were placed in coronary arteries. An attempt was made to treat the patient with cisplatin and etoposide, after which respiratory failure, tumor lysis syndrome and pancytopenia occurred. That is why chemotherapy was discontinued at the time. The patient’s tumor area and brain was irradiated. 16 months later, she is still alive without signs of disease progression. New oncologic standards should be elaborated in order to ensure appropriate treatment for elderly patients.

Opis:
The article presents the results of research on the relationship between social support and self-care of people with myocardial infarction. 127 patients treated in a rehabilitation centre participated in the study. The Inventory of Socially Supportive Behaviours (ISSB) and the Self-care Questionnaire (KTS) developed by the author, were used. The findings suggest that persons receiving little support are characterised by lower level of self-care than people with medium and high level of support. No such difference was noted between people with medium and high support level. This suggests that social support is of considerable importance for the changes in the level of self-care only in the case of people previously receiving little support. The research also indicates that informational support is related to higher level of self-care whereas instrumental support is related to lower level of self-care. Emotional support was significant only for the care for social functioning.

Background: New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) is one of the complications of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and is associated with poor outcome. The aim of the study was clinical and laboratory assessment of patients with NOAF in AMI. Material and methods: This is a retrospective, single-centre study of AMI patients with NOAF, who were admitted to Clinical Centre of Cardiology of the University Clinical Centre in Gdansk, from January 2016 to June 2018. The medical history, echocardiography parameters, AMI localization and infarcted-related artery as well as laboratory parameters at the admission and at the moment of NOAF onset were taken into further analyses. Results: From 1155 consecutive AMI patients 103 (8.9%) with NOAF were enrolled into the study. A significant increase in C-reactive protein (CRP) and high-sensitive Troponine I (hsTnI) level, whereas significant decrease in potassium and hemoglobin level was observed at the moment of NOAF in comparison to admission. Conclusions: Our study suggests that markers of inflammation (CRP), myocardial necrosis (hsTnI), hemoglobin and serum potassium may be associated with NOAF in the setting on AMI. The aforementioned parameters are generally available and may be used as an inexpensive and rapid way to select patients who are at high risk of developing NOAF.

Opis:
Background: Coronary heart disease is one of the most common causes of hospitalization and premature deaths in Europe. ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been a clinical problem for many years, particularly in the aspect of choosing the optimal treatment method. The success of treatment is determined by many factors, including risk factors for ischemic heart disease, time between onset of symptoms and initiation of treatment, number and degree of coronary stenosis, and many more. Aim of the study: The aim of the study was to identify risk factors for ischemic heart disease affecting the success of STEMI patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Material and methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on data from medical records of patients treated in the Department of Acute Coronary Syndromes of St. Hedvig Provincial Hospital No. 2 in Rzeszow between 2009 and 2014. The research tool used in this paper was the author’s questionnaire. A total of 508 patients with STEMI myocardial infarction treated in the Department of Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) between 2009 and 2013 were included in the analysis. The inclusion criteria were the complete and clear files of patient treatment in the ACS department between 2009 and 2013 due to acute coronary syndrome treated invasively by the PCI method. Results: Majority of the study group, 334 subjects, (65.7%) had hypertension. The most common risk factors for ischemic heart disease were found to be dyslipidemia in 176 subjects (34.6%) and smoking in 163 subjects (32.1%). This paper presents the results of the analysis of the success of treatment in relation to risk factors for ischemic heart disease. There was a statistically significant relationship between hypertension and successful treatment (p=0.0425). More cases in which treatment was unsuccessful were observed in the group of patients who had no previous treatment for lipid disorders (20.2% vs. 4.0%) (p = 0.0000). Significantly more cases of treatment failure were found among people who denied smoking (17.4% vs. 8.6%; p = 0.0087). Conclusions: Among the analyzed behavioral and somatic risk factors for failure in patients subjected to treatment were untreated hypertension, hyperlipidemia and a negative history of cigarette smoking.

Purpose: To analyse knowledge of patients in the Interventional Cardiology Department in the field of theory of the disease entity, i.e. myocardial infarction and factors predisposing to its occurrence. Materials and methods: The study was carried out at the Interventional Cardiology Department of the Regional Specialist Hospital in BiałaPodlaska between 3.11.2017 and 20.12.2017. Sixty respondents were included, 62% women and 38% men. The largest group were patients between 46 and 60 years of age. The work involved an anonymous questionnaire, which contained 28 questions, including two open ones. Patients participated in the study were informed that the study was voluntary and the questionnaire was anonymous. Results: According to the respondents, the main cause of myocardial infarction is atherosclerosis (43.4%). The respondents indicate that cardiovascular diseases (including myocardial infarction) which are on the third place in Poland, right after cancer and injuries, cause death (63.3%). As the main factor that influences the occurrence of myocardial infarction is overweight and obesity (79.8%). More than half of the respondents assess their knowledge of myocardial infarction on average, while 18.3 % said that they have very good knowledge. Conclusions: Patients with myocardial infarction have quite a good knowledge about the risk factors for this disease. A large group of respondents tries to counteract the risk factors for myocardial infarction. A small part of the respondents undergoes regular blood tests (blood glucose level, total cholesterol and its fractions, measurement of blood pressure).

Opis:
In recent decades a significant raise in the incidence of myocardial infarction among young women has been recorded. It is presumed that, apart from the classical risk factors, other reasons exist for premature atherosclerosis in young women, related to the homeostasis of gonadal hormones. The aim of the study was to analyze the levels of gonadal hormones (estradiol, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone) measured in the luteal phase, in 65 normally menstruating women post myocardial infarction (MI) and to investigate a possible relationship between the hormone profile and selected coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factors. The levels of gonadal hormones: estradiol, progesterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone were measured in the luteal phase. All examined women had normal mean levels of gonadal hormones. In the post MI patients leading a sedentary life style, a significantly lower mean progesterone concentration was observed (16.29 ± 9.11 versus 29.43 ± 21.14 nmol/l, p < 0.05) and significantly higher mean testosterone concentration (2.34 ± 0.98 versus 1.76 ± 1.09 nmol/l, p < 0.05) when compared to patients from the same group, but leading a more active life. In obese post MI women (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) a lower mean concentration of progesterone was detected (18.02 ± 8.12 versus 26.16 ± 14.72 nmol/l, p < 0.05), than in slimmer patients from the same group. In post MI women with a positive family history for CAD, a significantly higher mean concentration of testosterone was detected (2.31 ± 1.22 versus 1.67 ± 0.74 nmol/l, p < 0.05) than in patients with no family history. The results suggest a correlation between levels of gonadal hormones and classical CAD risk factors.

INTRODUCTION: Acute coronary syndromes are one of the leading causes of death due to cardiovascular diseases. The diagnosis is made on the basis of the clinical picture, ECG record and laboratory tests. Diagnosis of critical myocardial ischemia in pre-hospital conditions is a challenge for emergency medical teams. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In order to determine the level of knowledge and the ability to recognize and deal with patients with acute coronary syndrome tests were carried out among fifty employees of the emergency medical service (doctors, nurses and paramedics) in the region of central Poland. Statistical analysis was carried out using the normality test of the Shapiro-Wilk distribution and non-parametric chi-square test of independence. The results were considered significant at the level p < 0,05. RESULTS: In the field of diagnostics, doctors obtained the result of 73.20% (SD ± 32.23), paramedics: 52.00% (SD ± 24.51), and nurses: 30.00% (SD ± 13.75). Correct treatment was best implemented by paramedics who obtained an average of 51.11% (SD ± 34.98). In turn, doctors gave 49.33% (SD ± 39.05) correct answers, and nurses 43.22% (SD ± 34.17). There was no statistical dependence of the test results on the profession (ᵡ² = 1.13; p> 0.05), nor being the head of the emergency medical team (ᵡ² = 0,43; p>0,05). CONCLUSIONS: The level of preparation of ambulance service personnel in the field of identifying and dealing with patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome is insufficient. Further research is indicated indicating the greatest substantive deficiencies of emergency doctors, paramedics and emergency nurses to implement the necessary professional development.
WSTĘP: Ostre zespoły wieńcowe są jedną z głównych przyczyn zgonów z powodu chorób sercowo-naczyniowych. Diagnozę stawia się na podstawie obrazu klinicznego, zapisu ekg oraz badań laboratoryjnych. Rozpoznanie krytycznego niedokrwienia mięśnia sercowego w warunkach przedszpitalnych stanowi wyzwanie dla zespołów ratownictwa medycznego. MATERIAŁ I METODY: W celu określenia poziomu wiedzy i umiejętności rozpoznawania oraz postępowania z pacjentem z ostrym zespołem wieńcowym przeprowadzono testy wśród pięćdziesięciu pracowników systemu Państwowego Ratownictwa Medycznego (lekarzy, pielęgniarek i ratowników medycznych) w rejonie centralnej Polski. Analizę statystyczną przeprowadzono za pomocą testu normalności rozkładu Shapiro-Wilka oraz testu nieparametrycznego chi-kwadrat niezależności. Wyniki uznano za istotne na poziomie p < 0,05. WYNIKI: W zakresie diagnostyki lekarze uzyskali wynik 73,20% (SD ± 32,23), ratownicy medyczni: 52,00% (SD ± 24,51), a pielęgniarki: 30,00% (SD ± 13,75). Poprawne postępowanie najlepiej potrafili wdrożyć ratownicy medyczni, którzy uzyskali średnią 51,11% (SD ± 34,98). Z kolei lekarze udzielili 49,33% (SD ± 39,05) poprawnych odpowiedzi, zaś pielęgniarki 43,22% (SD ± 34,17). Nie wykazano zależności statystycznej wyników testu z wykonywanym zawodem (ᵡ² = 1,13; p>0,05), ani pełnieniem funkcji kierownika zespołu ratownictwa medycznego (ᵡ² = 0,43; p>0,05). WNIOSKI: Poziom przygotowania personelu zespołów ratownictwa medycznego w zakresie rozpoznawania i postępowania z pacjentem z podejrzeniem ostrego zespołu wieńcowego jest niewystarczający. Wskazane są dalsze badania wskazujące na największe braki merytoryczne lekarzy systemu, ratowników medycznych i pielęgniarek systemu, aby wdrożyć niezbędne doskonalenie zawodowe.

Opis:
In recent years stem cells have become the object of curiosity for many researchers and clinicians. Interest in the use of these cells is an effect of their specific properties. Their great potential for self-renewal as well as the ability to differentiate into specific cell types is particularly interesting. These unique features allow us to think about stem cells as a possible therapeutic solution in the treatment of damaged tissues. The tissue that is particularly vulnerable to damage is heart muscle, which consists of cardiomyocytes. These cells are extremely vulnerable to lack of the oxygen, what can be observed in the case of temporary cardiac ischemia, e.g. during physical exertion or in stressful situations, which initially manifests as stable angina. Prolonged ischemia and consequent hypoxia of cardiomyocytes lead to their death what is manifested as myocardial infarction. An extensive area of post-infarction necrosis impairs heart functioning as a blood pumping organ what leads to its failure. Researchers are still searching for a therapy that would replace large areas of dead cardiomyocytes with new cells, and thus potentially minimize the negative effects of myocardial necrosis and postpone the impairment of its function. Due to their properties, it seems a good idea to introduce stem cells as a method of treatment, hence many studies are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of these cells in the treatment of cardiac patients. This paper presents a literature review of stem cell applications in the aforementioned cardiac diseases, taking into account the obtained results.

Silesian Voivodeship
Opis:
Introduction and aim. Cardiovascular diseases remains the leading cause of death in most of devoloped societies, including Poland. The study aimed to assess the changes in the number, duration, and costs of hospitalizations due to myocardial infarction in Silesian voivodeship (Poland) in 2009-2014. Material and methods. Data were obtained from the Silesian Voivodeship Branch of the National Health Fund. The number, costs, and duration of healthcare services granted during an inpatient hospital stay to patients with acute initial or subsequent myocardial infarction in 2009-2014 were processed and analyzed quarterly for the whole Silesian voivodeship and its subregions. Results. From 54826 patients aged 66±12, the majority were males (62.3%) and 63.4% of 80866 hospitalizations were granted to them. We observed a decreasing trend for the total number of healthcare services granted in 2009-2014 that varied depending on the subregion. Simultaneously, we found that in most subregions the costs of services and the number of invasive services increased over time. We observed that treating patients above 80 years with acute initial or subsequent myocardial infarction generated lower costs of hospitalization but was extended in time. Conclusion. Increased number and costs and accompanying reduced duration of hospitalizations granted in 2009-2014, especially in the range of invasive cardiology and cardiac surgery, results from implementing international guidelines and recommendations for acute myocardial infarction procedures. Lower cost and extended time of hospitalization for patients older than 80 years most likely result from using conservative (non-invasive) methods of treatment.

Opis:
A bilateral thalamic ischemic stroke is a rare clinical manifestation resulting mainly from cardioembolism or small vessel disease. The ischemic stroke affecting the thalamus bilaterally may lead to memory and executive dysfunction, dis o rientation, oculomotor and conjugated gaze disturbances, motor deficit, cerebellar symptoms, apathy, stupor, somnolence and a coma. There have only been a few descriptions of the neuropsychological condition prevalent in this group of patients. The aim of the study was to present a detailed neuropsychological manifestation and follow-up with systematic rehabilitation. We present a 57-year-old female patient suffering from a bilateral thalamic ischemic stroke due to cardiogenic embolism of the artery of Percheron. The presented case summarizes the dynamics of the changes in cognitive and executive functions in the patient over the course of six months from the onset. We conclude that all bilateral stroke patients should undergo a detailed neuropsychological assess ment, an early, intensive rehabilitation process and a full cardiac investigation to unearth the potential causes.

Opis:
Thrombolysis with the use of intravenously administrated alteplase is the only approved thrombolytic treatment of acute ischemic stroke. Tenecteplase is a fibrinolytic protein bioengineered from human tissue plasminogen activator with higher fibrin specificity, enhanced affinity to fibrin-rich clots, faster clot lysis and prolonged plasma half-life. The aim of this study was to determine which thrombolytic therapy (tenecteplase versus alteplase) provides better efficacy and safety outcomes. Eligible studies for meta-analysis published from their inception to May 2018 were identified through a search of PubMed database and two clinical trial registries websites: ClinicalTrials.gov and EU Clinical Trials Register. A meta-analysis was conducted with the use of Statistica software version 13.1. Five studies comprising 1529 patients were included. Tenecteplase 0,25mg/kg administration resulted in significantly higher number of patients with excellent score (0-1) in modified Rankin Scale at 90 days compared to alteplase group (RR 1,30, p=0,0215, 95% CI 1,04–1,62). Additionally, more patients treated with tenecteplase 0,25 mg/kg tended to develop favorable score changes in NIHSS at 24 hours after stroke onset (>8 point improvement, scale quantifying stroke severity) compared to alteplase treatment (RR 1,60, p=0,0545, 95% CI 0,99–2,58). No above correlation were observed in higher dose of tenecteplase group (0,4 mg/kg). There were no significant differences in the frequency of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the mortality rates within 90 days after stroke onset in comparison of tenecteplase and alteplase groups. Tenecteplase 0,25 mg/kg administration in acute ischemic stroke resulted in better functional outcome at 90 days after ischemic stroke onset and tended to restrict the severity of stroke at 24 hours in NIHSS compared to alteplase 0,9 mg/kg. The frequency of symptomatic ICH occurrence and mortality within 3 months between tenecteplase and alteplase were comparable.

Opis:
Toxic myocardial injury can be misdiagnosed as a myocardial infarction, resulting in the patient undergoing standard treatment for cardiac rehabilitation. However, such inadequate therapeutic strategies can lead to cardiovascular complications including dilated cardiomyopathy. This study presents a case of a 65-year-old man after accidental ingestion of organic solvents (toluene and xylene), whose condition demonstrated all the criteria for diagnosis of myocardial infarction. The qualitative determinations of the above mentioned volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in whole blood were carried out using a headspace sampling by means of gas chromatography. Cardiac catheterization revealed no specific coronary lesions, only a muscular bridge causing a 30–50% stenosis in the middle of the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery.
