A Case of Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction by Coronary Artery Focal Spasm in a Patient with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

ABSTRACT

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited renal disease. The main causes of death in ADPKD are cardiovascular disease as well as infections and neurological reasons. ADPKD is causing vasculopathy including aortic root dilation, cerebral artery aneurysm, coronary aneurysm, and aortic dissection. In this case report, we describe a 37-year-old female ADPKD patient with non-ST elevation MI (NSTEMI) caused by coronary artery focal spasm.
