12 Copyright © 2013 Frequently heavy smokers MI often first evidence of coronary disease  < 1 week of pre-MI symptoms High incidence of “single vessel” disease (normal in 20%) Cocaine  Coronary artery spasm, hypercoagulable, accelerated atherosclerosis, hypertension, arrhythmia Myocardial infarction in men younger than age 45

13 Copyright © 2013 Congenital coronary anomaly Hypercoagulable state  Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome ( hx of recurrent venous and arterial thrombosis  Factor V Leiden (smoking increases MI risk) Spontaneous coronary artery dissection  Women, peripartum  Ehlers Danlos, Marfans  During or after strenuous exercise  Cocaine Septic embolus to coronary artery Coronary artery aneurysm with thrombosis Myocardial infarction in men younger than age 45

16 Copyright © 2013 Kawasaki Disease Cause? Autoimmune, infection, genetic susceptibility 25% develop coronary artery aneurysm  IVIG + ASA during first 10 days decrease aneurysm formation to 3-5% Symptomatic adult 20 years later

17 Copyright © 2013 Adult with history Kawasaki Disease No Data No coronary dilatation followed acute episode  Noninvasive coronary testing every 3-4 years Coronary artery aneurysm – no symptoms  Noninvasive testing every 6 months  Coronary angio every 2-3 years (??? CT)  Low dose aspirin  Giant aneurysm (>7 mm) warfarin Coronary artery aneurysm – symptoms  More frequent noninvasive testing  Angiography as needed
