This case report demonstrates the successful surgical management of extremely rare multiple giant coronary artery aneurysms using on-pump quadruple CABG.
Adds rare case of giant coronary aneurysms to literature; leaves open optimal long-term management and surveillance strategies.
Coronary artery aneurysms are encountered in daily cardiology practise but multiple giant-sized coronary artery aneurysms are extremely rare. We present an illustrative case of multiple giant aneurysms located throughout the coronary system (left main stem and all left, right, and circumflex branches) in a 57-year-old male with acute coronary syndrome. The case was managed successfully with on-pump quadruple coronary artery bypass grafting. To our knowledge, few cases of multiple giant aneurysms in all coronary vessels have been reported.
