Case Report
Myocardial bridging with left ventricular hypertrophy presenting as Wellens pattern
Abstract
The course of epicardial coronary arteries into a muscular tunnel under a bridge of myocardium is known as myocardial bridging (MB). This could be a benign anomaly, nevertheless, it could have a great impact on the quality of life in the setting of severe anginal symptoms. The clinical presentation and diagnosis could be challenging in those patients. The treatment options start from simple medical therapy to surgical intervention in refractory cases, the role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is limited in MB. We are describing a case of severe MB presenting as Wellens pattern with underlying left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH).
