AbstractProximal occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD)
results in a less favorable prognosis in coronary angiography. Therefore, it is
important to determine whether there are significant lesions in LAD by
electrocardiography (ECG) before coronary angiography. Twelve-lead ECG was
compared in 130 patients with significant lesions (≥70% stenosis) confined to
proximal part o... hiện toàn bộ

thrombophilia or antiphospholipid syndrome. Recurrent pulmonary embolism
strongly indicates the presence of genetic or acquired thrombophilic factors.
Simultaneous double arterial in situ thromboses are unusual, even in
thrombophilic conditions. Simultaneous occurrence of pulmonary embolism and
cerebrovascular ischaemic insult... hiện toàn bộ
