Key result
Deep myocardial bridging linked to early CABG graft occlusion and stent deformation in one patient.
Deep position myocardial bridging may complicate both surgical and percutaneous revascularization, leading to graft occlusion and stent deformation.
Warrants caution for revascularization failure in deep myocardial bridging; leaves open optimal screening or management strategies.
We present a case of deep position myocardial bridging in a patient who had early graft occlusion after coronary artery bypass grafting and had stent deformation and in-stent restonesis after succedent stenting.

Zou et al. (2012) studied this question. Deep position myocardial bridging resulted in early graft occlusion after coronary artery bypass grafting and subsequent stent deformation and in-stent restenosis in a single patient.
