ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of patients who suffered from acute myocardial infarction with angiographically normal coronary arteries (MINC) Methods Forty patients (mean age: 52 6?12 2 years; range: 30-75 years) admitted with acute myocardial infarction had normal coronary arteries after AMI, defined by normal or insignificant 50% diameter stenosis) The risk factors, clinical data, ventricular functions and the long term outcomes were compared between Group A and Group B Results Hypertension and previous angina were more frequent in Group B Patients in Group A had a lower number of risk factors associated with them than patients in Group B LVEF during hospital was higher in Group A than in Group B The mean follow up period was 67?40 months in Group A and 68?34 months in Group B Incidencs of rehospitalization, repeat intervention therapies, heart failures, and total heart events were fewer in Group A than in Group B Conclusion These data suggest a favorable long term prognosis and fewer risk factors in patients who suffered from acute myocardial infarction with normal or nearly normal coronary arteriogram
