description | Currently, there are no explicit guidelines on the management of acute myocardial infarction (MI) in young adults under the age of 30. The lack of published literature to guide clinicians in the care of young adults with MI has prompted us to report a case exemplary for the successful treatment with coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). A 25-year-old man developed acute MI and underwent on-pump five quintuple CABG using bilateral internal mammary arteries and left greater saphenous vein. This appropriate and timely intervention may have helped to prevent cardiac death and maintain the quality of life. |
