Title : Case series study of Coronary artery anomalies in a tertiary care centre hospital
Abstract:
Aim 1.To study the incidence and prevalence of coronary anomalies in order to gather meaningful data about the lesions
2.To precisely determine the incidence of associated mortality and risk.
Methods: The study was conducted in Chengalpattu Medical College under Cardiology Department, who presented signs and symptoms consistent with angina and acute coronary syndrome. Based on risk factors, prognostic significance and better outcome patients were subjected with coronary angiogram. The study was conducted over aperiod of April 2022-2023. About 803 patients underwent coronary angiogram during this period and Coronary anomalies were identified in the same retrospectively.
Results: Among 803 patients underwent Coronary angiogram, 12 patients were identified to have coronary anomalies. Overall incidence of coronary anomalies in our study is 1.49%. Thier mean age of distribution were 50.5 years(minimum age distribution of 35 years to maximum 66 years) Thier sex distribution was 9 males and 3 females.
Conclusion: Though prevalence of coronary artery anomalies are rare the basic understanding of coronary artery anomalies is important and some of them possess clinical significance. The ultimate goal is to ascertain the prognosis in order to begin appropriate treatment and preventing sudden cardiac death in young adults.
