<p>Abstract </p><p>Background: </p><p>The rupture of the anterolateral papillary muscle is less common than the posteromedial papillary muscle since the anterolateral muscle has dual blood supplies, while the posteromedial papillary muscle has a single blood supply. <strong></strong></p><p>Case presentation: </p><p>We present a case report of a 62 year old Sudanese male presenting with acute inferior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), underwent primary PCI (percutaneous intervention) to the right coronary artery. One hour after the PCI, he had sudden heart failure Kilip class IV, with significant shortness of breath, required intubation. Diagnosed to have mitral regurgitation from the complete rupture of the anterolateral papillary muscle due to coronary artery disease. The Transthoracic images were not enough to show the mitral valve apparatus and the transeophageal echocardiography as a gold standard showed clearly the rupture of the antero-lateral papillary muscle. The patient underwent a mitral valve replacement and concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting of the right coronary artery and left circumflex artery. <strong></strong></p><p>Conclusion: </p><p>Acute mitral regurgitation can be precipitated by acute myocardial infarction due to rupture of the anterolateral papillary muscle. <strong></strong></p>

Giant Size

<p>Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is a rare entity. Sometimes it may associate with mild diffuse or segmental coronary ectasia. CAF with giant coronary artery is exceptionally rare. We present a unique case of a 49-year-old female patient with a giant right coronary artery of diffuse ectasia coexisting with a fistula draining into the right ventricle. To our best knowledge, CAF with diffuse coronary ectasia of such giant size has never been reported. The patient was treated successfully by resection of the dilated right coronary artery, fistula closure, and coronary artery bypass grafting.</p>

A unique clinical observation of the intravital diagnosis of hypoplasia of the right coronary artery in the young professional athlete is presented. This observation demonstrates the importance of carrying out stress tests during the dispensary examination of athletes, as well as modern methods of diagnosis of pathology of coronary arteries.

AbstractWe describe a patient with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum in whom the right atrium was divided by a vascular aneurysm located in the right atrioventricular groove. We postulate that the structure represents an aneursymally dilated right coronary artery taking anomalous origin from the pulmonary trunk, with fistulous communication to the right atrium. We discuss the findings relative to concepts of development of the coronary arteries in normal hearts and in pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum.
