Abstract

Here in it is described a new genetic microvascular obstructive disease causing progressive hypo-perfusion of human brain, heart and kidney. Since the age of 30 years a male patient developed recurrent angina with normal coronary epicardial vessels but remarkable slow flow at angiography causing cardiac micro-aneurysms that at endomyocardial biopsy were associated to obstructive microvascular dysplasia. His history was followed in the seven decade by micro-hematuria characterized at kidney biopsy by renal microvascular dysplasia and frequent cerebral ischemic attacks with preserved structure of main brain arteries. Analysis of 5,600 genetic disease-causing genes revealed mutation of ABCC6, MMP2 and XYLT1 genes.
