초록
Hypoplastic coronary artery disease (HCAD) is a rare congenital underdevelopment disease, which may lead to myocardial infarction and sudden death. We report a case of HCAD identified incidentally during the autopsy of a 25-year-old male soldier who died during underwater escape training. Grossly, the diameter of the right coronary artery was 1 mm, significantly smaller than that of other coronary arteries. No other anomalies were found other than HCAD. The cause of death was determined as drowning, consistent with autopsy findings and the circumstance of death. Although very rare, if sudden cardiac death is suspected in children and young adults, it must be checked through examination.
Abstract
Hypoplastic coronary artery disease (HCAD) is a rare congenital underdevelopment disease, which may lead to myocardial infarction and sudden death. We report a case of HCAD identified incidentally during the autopsy of a 25-year-old male soldier who died during underwater escape training. Grossly, the diameter of the right coronary artery was 1 mm, significantly smaller than that of other coronary arteries. No other anomalies were found other than HCAD. The cause of death was determined as drowning, consistent with autopsy findings and the circumstance of death. Although very rare, if sudden cardiac death is suspected in children and young adults, it must be checked through examination.
