Abstract
Background: In India Coronary artery disease manifests almost a decade earlier than in western countries. This is a study to discuss the distribution of coronary angiograms among the patients admitted to cardiology department, Stanley Medical college. Objective: This study examined the Coronary angiographic profile of men and women admitted with a diagnosis of coronary artery disease in in our hospital with special emphasis on non obstructive CAD. Methods: The methodology used was single centre retrospective analysis. Results: Among the case that underwent CAG in our hospital8.7% come under 20 – 40 years 64.5 % come under 40 – 60 years and 26.8% of cases are above 60 years. Females account for 35.8% and males account 64.2%. Among CSA patients, Non obstructive CAD make up 63% of the cases. Amon UA/ NSTEMI, non obstructive CAD make up 42% of cases. Conclusion: Normal coronaries although might appear as benign are not benign and could be responsible for CSA and ACS. Further testing must be done to prove the endothelium dysfunction or microvascular dysfunction in these subset of patients.
