Abstract

The hereditary predisposition of coronary heart disease is well known, especially in first-degree relatives. We present two cases – mother and son with coronary artery involvement. Initially, endovascular treatment was performed on a 44-year-old son admitted with acute myocardial infarction, 7 years later developed restenosis in the stent, which required repeated intervention. Four months later coronarography and stenting was performed his mother 78 years old with acute myocardial infarction. Genetic factors can influence both the risk of coronary heart disease and the risk of in-stent restenosis.
