Left circumflex coronary artery bridging

Abstract

Myocardial bridging most frequently occurs on the left anterior descending coronary artery and may cause ischemia and related complications. Right coronary artery myocardial bridges (MB) are rare. We report a patient with an unusual coronary bridge, a left circumflex coronary artery bridge, who presented with exercise-induced angina pectoris that was relieved with medical therapy.
