摘要
We present a case of a 55-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with complaints of acute onset of chest pain. As part of the workup, an electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed ST-segment elevation in leads V1-V5. Upon cardiac catheterization, myocardial bridging of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery was discovered without evidence of any obstructive coronary artery disease. The purpose of this report is to add to the existing literature that myocardial bridging, although traditionally thought to be a benign pathology, can also present risks for ischemia and infarction.
