Abstract:	A 72-year-old woman was admitted to our institution because of sudden chest pain. Emergency coronary angiography revealed thrombotic occlusion of the distal right coronary artery. A large cylindrical thrombus was retrieved from her distal right coronary artery using a thrombus aspiration catheter. IVUS showed minimal atherosclerosis and moderate ectatic change at the proximal right coronary artery. A reconstructed IVUS image also showed that a mural thrombus with abrupt ending was still retained at the ectatic segment. Based on this evidence, coronary ectasia was thought to be the primary cause for the thrombus formation and acute myocardial infarction in this case.
