冠状动脉动脉瘤并不常见，通常继发于动脉粥样硬化，且通常无症状。它们通常在缺血性心脏病的调查或猝死的尸检中偶然诊断出来。我们报告一例“巨大”右冠状动脉动脉瘤（CAA）偶然发现的手术。病理检查证实这是一个真正的动脉瘤，显示明显的中膜变薄和纤维钙化斑块，伴小的多灶性淋巴细胞浸润。(C) 2006爱思唯尔公司版权所有。
Aneurysms of the coronary arteries are uncommon occurrences that usually develop secondary to atherosclerosis and are often asymptomatic. They are usually diagnosed incidentally during investigation for ischemic heart disease or at autopsy for sudden death. We present a case of a "giant" right coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) discovered incidentally at surgery. Pathological examination confirmed that this was a true aneurysm showing marked thinning of the media and fibrocalcific plaques with small, multifocal areas of lymphocytic infiltrates.
