Myocardial Bridge (MB) is a common heart anomaly, frequently asymptomatic and difficult to diagnose. This condition can be a contributing factor to coronary artery disease, impacting patient diagnosis and treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Anatomical Pathology

Background:

  • Myocardial Bridge (MB) is a congenital anomaly where a segment of cardiac muscle crosses over a coronary artery.
  • Despite its high autopsy prevalence (85%), MB is often asymptomatic and overlooked in clinical practice.

Observation:

  • The study presents two cases of Myocardial Bridge.
  • Diagnosis of MB can be challenging, particularly in patients with co-existing coronary artery disease.

Findings:

  • Selective coronary angiograms identify MB in only 16-20% of patients presenting with chest pain.
  • Myocardial Bridge is increasingly recognized as a potential cause or contributor to coronary artery disease.

Implications:

  • Increased awareness and diagnostic vigilance for Myocardial Bridge are crucial in managing patients with suspected or confirmed coronary artery disease.
