Abstract EN

Coronary artery aneurysms are encountered in daily cardiology practise but multiple giant-sized coronary artery aneurysms are extremely rare.

We present an illustrative case of multiple giant aneurysms located throughout the coronary system (left main stem and all left, right, and circumflex branches) in a 57-year-old male with acute coronary syndrome.

The case was managed successfully with on-pump quadruple coronary artery bypass grafting.

To our knowledge, few cases of multiple giant aneurysms in all coronary vessels have been reported.
