Article Synopsis
- Nail-Patella syndrome (NPS) is a genetic condition causing various skeletal abnormalities and is often associated with renal issues due to changes in collagen.
- A 62-year-old woman with a long history of NPS presented with chest pain and was found to have severe coronary artery blockage and aneurysms, leading to successful stent placement.
- This case is noteworthy as it’s the first documented instance of coronary vascular anomalies in an NPS patient, suggesting that healthcare providers may need to consider additional vascular issues when treating individuals with this syndrome.
