DOI: 10.1111/echo.14357
Abstract: Myocardial bridging (MB) can cause myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, or even sudden cardiac death. We aimed to evaluate the left ventricular function in patients with MB of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000513900
Abstract: Myocardial bridging (MB) is a congenital anomaly where a coronary artery branch or group of branches extends inside a tunnel consisting of myocardium. Although it is mostly considered “benign,” it is reported that MB may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/23247096211073255
Abstract: Wellens’ syndrome is an electrocardiographic harbinger of a critical left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery stenosis in acute coronary syndromes (ACS), whereas pseudo-Wellens’ syndrome typically has angiographically normal coronary arteries. Myocardial bridging (MB) occurs when… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.970422
Abstract: Myocardial bridging (MB) is the most frequent congenital coronary anomaly in which a segment of an epicardial coronary artery takes a tunneled course under a bridge of the myocardium. This segment is compressed during systole,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life12101560
Abstract: Background: The possibility of myocardial bridging (MB) causing chest pain has been widely reported; however, the effect of MB on coronary microvessels has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study evaluated the effects of MB… read more here.

A rare cause of early repolarisation in an adolescent boy with chest pain: myocardial bridging
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Cardiovascular Journal of Africa"
DOI: 10.5830/cvja-2016-088
Abstract: Summary Early repolarisation is a common electrocardiographic (ECG) finding characterised by J-point and ST segment elevation ≥ 0.1 mV in two or more adjacent leads. The ECG pattern of early repolarisation is relatively common in… read more here.
