Sažetak

Case report: 46-years-old patient with positive family anamnesis of cardiovascular diseases was presented in Special Hospital Magdalena in January 2017 with fatigue and chest pain. Cardiology work up revealed dilated cardiomyopathy (EF 20%), moderate mitral regurgitation and thrombus in left ventricle. On a second day of hospitalization patient was diagnosed with left popliteal artery embolism. After the treatment with low molecular heparin, thrombus was dissolved, and popliteal artery was recanalized. He continued anticoagulation therapy with warfarin. During hospitalization another complication occurred. Left sided pneumonia was successfully treated with azithromycin and ceftriaxone. Beside his cardiological problems, hepatic lesion was also verified. The etiology of hepatic lesion was probably alcohol abuse as it was for dilated cardiomyopathy1. In February 2018. invasive coronarography showed anomalous origin of left anterior descending artery from right coronary sinus with intact coronary arteries. Echocardiography was performed and there was an improvement of left ventricular ejection fraction (50%) and a sign of mild mitral regurgitation. In our hospital, MSCT coronarography verified anomalous origin of one left anterior descending artery from right coronary sinus, at the level of the exit of right coronary artery, with „bridging“ along the whole proximal segment. Left main coronary artery exits from left coronary sinus from where arises (except circumflex artery) another left anterior descending artery running in normal anatomic position along left ventricle with all developed branches, septals and diagonals2. Magnetic resonance imaging showed dilated cardiomyopathy with
ejection fraction 40%; nonspecific, stationary deficit of perfusion in intraventricular septum and inferior wall with typical pathological imbibition of myocardium, “midventricular type“, in post-contrast
sequences. This sign is typical for toxic, dilated cardiomyopathy. This heart with coronary arteries is 3D printed.
