Abstract
Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is defined as the local or diffuse dilatation of the coronary arteries. The ectatic segment should expand at least 1.5 times compared to the adjacent normal coronary artery segment. In this case, we presented a case of CAE measuring 6.8mm at its widest point with two coronary arteries involved. In this case, we considered CAE secondary to atherosclerosis. Although there are no definitive suggestions in CAE treatment, in appropriate cases, interventional treatment and medical treatment are recommended. According to the angiography result, we made a medical treatment decision. The treatment decision should be made according to the etiology of CAE and the properties of the patient and angiography results
