Fibromuscular dysplasia is a nonatherosclerotic and non-inflammatory vascular disease with primary lesion of renal and internal carotid arteries.
We present a neonatal case of fibromuscular dysplasia who died on the second day of life. The newborn suffered from fibromuscular dysplasia of
the coronary arteries and a congenital heart defect. The interesting feature of this case was the formation of aneurysms of the coronary arteries
with pulmonary atresia.
This case demonstrates a casuistically rare form of association between fibromuscular dysplasia of the coronary arteries and pulmonary artery
atresia.
