A 54-year-old female without identifiable risk factors for coronary artery disease and with past medical history significant for mixed connective tissue disease, supraventricular tachycardia, and SCAD which was diagnosed 3 years ago with lesions in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and obtuse marginal (OM) artery that was treated with 2 stents to the LAD (Figure 1).
Cardiac catheterization from this hospitalization: (A) 40% stenosis in the mid to
distal RCA, (B) patent stents in the LAD, and 99% lesion at a sub-branch OM (circle).
The previous lesion in the OM seen 3 years ago is no longer there and appears
angiographically normal (arrow).
