Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum is a rare, inherited connective tissue disorder associated with coronary and peripheral arterial disease and accelerated atherosclerosis in medium sized arteries. We describe 110-month symptom-free survival in a patient with pseudoxanthoma elasticum who underwent coronary bypass using the left internal mammary artery at 56 years of age. The vessel was evaluated pre-operatively with angiography to determine suitability, and he has not required further investigation or intervention due to lack of symptoms. |
