DOI: 10.1016/j.bbe.2019.02.005

Abstract: Abstract The presence of tortuosity in coronary artery (CA) affects the local wall shear stress (WSS) which is an influencing hemodynamic descriptor (HD) for the development of atherosclerotic sites. To conduct a morphological parametric study… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bcr-2022-249095

Abstract: We present a case of angina, where extreme coronary tortuosity affected invasive physiology interpretation. Extreme coronary tortuosity may lower fractional flow reserve and instantaneous wave-free ratio. Therefore, invasive physiology can be misleading in this setting,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.804731

Abstract: Background: A large proportion of patients with angina and no obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA) has underlying coronary vasomotor dysfunction (CVDys), which can be diagnosed by a coronary function test (CFT). Coronary tortuosity is a… read more here.

DOI: 10.5830/cvja-2017-023

Abstract: BACKGROUND Coronary tortuosity (CorT) is a common angiographic finding and may be associated with myocardial ischaemia, even without coronary artery disease. Platelets play a crucial role in inflammatory and thrombotic processes and the physiopathology of… read more here.
