Objective Compare the distance between the pulmonary artery (PA) and the left coronary artery (LCA) using pulmonary angiography and the rate of detection of the signs of left ventricular myocardial ischemiain the first electrocardiogram (ECG) in pulmonary embolism (PE) patients with or without angina to detect possible causes of angina pectoris.Material and Methods Measurement of the minimum distance between the PA and LCA in multislice spiral computed tomography and analysis of the first ECG were performed in 55 PE patients. 15 (27.3%) patients had angina pectoris at the onset of the disease.Results Angina pectoris was observed in 14 (93.3%) of 15 patients with the distance between the PA andLCA less than 4.3 mm, and in one (2.5%) of 40 patients with the distance between these vessels equalto or exceeding the specified value (p<0.001). In the first ECG, the ST elevation in the aVR lead wasdetected in 10 (66.7%) patients with angina pectoris, and only in 3 (7.5%) patients without anginapectoris (p<0.001).Conclusions The findings suggest that angina pectoris in acute pulmonary embolism may be caused by compression of the LCA by the dilated PA.

Acute Pe

Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have different etiology; however, PE might be concomitant with STEMI in rarely seen patient cases. Here, we present a 62-year-old male with pancreatic cancer who had acute PE and STEMI.
