Abstract

CAIMI MARTINEZ, Fiama  and  STRADA, Bruno. Recurrence of coronary events: endothelial dysfunction as a mediator. Rev.Urug.Cardiol. [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.1, pp.349-359.  Epub Apr 01, 2020. ISSN 0797-0048.  https://doi.org/10.29277/cardio.35.1.16.

There is evidence that after a coronary event, an inflammatory response is generated, increasing the endothelium dysfunction, which may motivate a new short-term coronary event. Recurrence of ischemic phenomena is described in the vessel involved in the initial event and other vascular territories. Potentially therapeutic physiopathological modifications do not have a clinical impact applicable to usual cardiological practice.

Keywords : Reinfarction; Endothelial dysfunction; Atherosclerosis.
