Abstract
Myocardial bridging (MB) is a rare congenital anomaly of the coronary artery. It involves symptoms of myocardial ischemia by causing various levels of narrowing in the coronary artery during systole at every heart contraction. In the literature MB is generally described in a single artery, in the left anterior descending artery (LAD). MB in other arteries or in more than one artery in the same patient is very rare. In our case, MB was determined in both the LAD and the left circumflex (CX) artery. Clinical status failed to improve despite anti-ischemic and anti-aggregant treatment, and the patient was scheduled for surgery. Coronary bypass and myectomy were performed using the cardiopulmonary bypass method. Surgery is a method that can be safely applied in selected cases of MB.
