Angiographically evident atherosclerotic stenosis associated with myocardial bridging (MB) and risk factors for the artery stenosis located proximally to MB: an observational study.

CONCLUSION: The intramural and distal portions of a bridged artery are not the forbidden zone of artery atherosclerosis formation. SNR of MB-MCA may be one of the important decision factors to coronary artery stenosis located proximally to MB. PMID: 24342930 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
