Unexpected death for Takayasu aortitis associated with coronary ostial stenosis: case report.

2015

The differential diagnosis of vasculitis is often a difficult task due to the frequent morphological similarities that various vasculitic syndromes express when the heart is the target organ. The more the lesions are limited to the arterial tree with absent or almost silent coronary events, the less specific the anatomical and clinical frameworks. To create a series of clinical records and on the basis of these assumptions, the authors report a case concerning the sudden death of a 43-year-old woman which occurred while an ergonometric test was being carried out 28 days after the onset of the symptoms. A subsequent postmortem investigation/autopsy enabled us to detect a granulomatous aortit…

Early and midterm outcomes of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds for ostial coronary lesions: insights from the GHOST-EU registry.

2016

Aims: We aimed to investigate the outcomes of bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) in coronary ostial lesions. Ostial lesions represent a challenging angiographic subset, with higher event rates compared with non-ostial lesions. BVS might be associated with advantages over the long term, but their safety in this setting remains to be explored. Methods and results: Procedural and 12-month follow-up data from consecutive patients treated with BVS for lesions located at the ostium of the right (RCA), left anterior (LAD) or circumflex (LCX) coronary in 11 European centres were collected. The primary device-oriented endpoint was defined as a combination of cardiovascular death, target vessel m…

Juvenile sudden cardiac death due to congenital coronary ostial valve-like ridges: A case report and literature review

2023

Coronary artery anomalies are a heterogeneous group of congenital disorders affecting the coronary pattern with a characteristic (origin, number, number of hosts, course, etc.). They are rarely found in the population. We report the case of a 21-year-old male who died from sudden cardiac death caused by an isolated coronary ostial obstruction, secondary to a rare anomaly, the presence of a valve-like ridge consisting of a small fold in the Valsalva aortic sinus. The study provides a brief literature review on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and clinical and medico-legal issues in coronary artery anomaly cases that may be helpful in forensic practice when dealing with sudden cardiac death i…

Morte inaspettata da aortite di Takayasu associata a stenosi ostiale coronarica

2013

La diagnosi differenziale nelle vasculiti è spesso impegnativa per le frequenti similitudini morfologiche che diverse sindromi vasculitiche esprimono quando l’organo bersaglio è il cuore. I quadri anatomo-clinici sono sempre meno specifici quanto più le lesioni sono confinate esclusivamente all’albero coronarico con manifestazioni extracardiache assenti o pressochè silenti. Sulla base di dette premesse gli autori riportano, per l’interesse di una eventuale casistica, un caso di decesso improvviso di donna di anni 43, intervenuto, a distanza di 28 giorni dalla comparsa dei primi sintomi, durante l’espletamento di test ergometrico con esecuzione del warm-up. La successiva indagine necroscopic…
