The left main coronary artery (LMCA) ST-elevation myocardial infarction has been associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Older age and cardiogenic shock are independent predictors for in-hospital mortality. Here, we report a case of an 89-year-old Javanese man with a history of smoking presented with total LMCA occlusion complicated by cardiogenic shock in an octogenarian that was saved by stenting in thrombolysis in myocardial Infarction Flow III right coronary artery.

Objectives. We aim to evaluate long-term outcomes after left main coronary artery (LMCA) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Background. PCI of the LMCA has been an acceptable revascularization strategy in stable coronary artery disease. However, limited studies on long-term clinical outcomes of LMCA PCI in ACS patients are available. Methods. A total of 6429 consecutive patients with ACS undergoing PCI in Fuwai Hospital in 2013 were enrolled. Patients are divided into LMCA group and Non-LMCA group according to whether the target lesion was located in LMCA. Prognosis impact on 2-year major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) is analyzed. Results. 155 (2.4%) patients had target lesion in LMCA, while 6274 (97.6%) patients belong to the non-LMCA group. Compared with non-LMCA patients, LMCA patients have generally more comorbidities and worse baseline conditions. Two-year follow-up reveals that LMCA patients have significantly higher rate of cardiac death (2.6% vs. 0.7%, p=0.034), myocardial infarction (7.1% vs. 1.8%, p<0.001), in-stent thrombosis (4.5% vs. 0.8%, p<0.001), and stroke (7.1% vs. 6.4%, p=0.025). After adjusting for confounding factors, LMCA remains independently associated with higher 2-year myocardial infarction rate (HR = 2.585, 95% CI = 1.243–5.347, p=0.011). Conclusion. LMCA-targeted PCI is an independent risk factor for 2-year myocardial infarction in ACS patients.

Introduction: To the best of the authors’ knowledge, very few publications are available which report on the prognostic significance of the culprit vessel in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction treated with successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Aim: The aim of the authors was to obtain data on the significance of the culprit vessel in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction treated successfully by primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Method: The authors performed a retrospective study in 10,763 patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction who underwent successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The culprit vessels were the left main artery, left anterior descendent artery, left circumflex artery, and right coronary artery. The authors constructed univariate survival curves for different culprit vessels and also performed multivariate modelling of time-to-death, controlling for age, sex, and comorbidities. Results: The majority of the culprit lesions were found in the left anterior descendent artery (44.3%), the right coronary artery (40.9%), and the left circumflex artery (13.7%). The culprit vessel was overall a highly significant (p<0.0001) factor of survival, with right coronary artery exhibiting a highly significantly better prognosis (hazard ratio 0.69, 95% CI 0.61–0.79, p<0.0001) and left main artery exhibiting a significantly worse prognosis (hazard ratio 1.56, 95% CI 1.04–2.35, p = 0.0321) than the reference vessel (left anterior descendent artery). Conclusion: These data demonstrate that the culprit vessel has independent prognostic significance. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(32), 1282–1288.
