Abstract
A myocardial bridge is defined as an intramyocardial course of a major epicardial coronary artery, and it is mainly confined to the left anterior descending coronary artery. There are rare reports of right coronary myocardial bridge seen during angiographic examination. Herein, we present a 64 year-old male patient who appired with the clinical findings of acute inferior myocardial infarction and was found to have serious myocardial bridge in right coranary artery after coranary angiography.

Abstract
Miyokardiyal köprüleşme ana epikardiyal koroner arterlerin birinin miyokard içerisinde seyretmesi durumudur ve genellikle sol ön inen artere sınırlıdır. Anjiyografik değerlendirmede sağ koroner arterde miyokardiyal köprüleşme birkaç kez bildirilmiştir. Biz akut inferiyor miyokardiyal infarktüs kliniği ile başvuran ve yapılan koroner anjiyografisinde sağ koroner arterde ciddi MK saptanan 64 yaşında bir erkek hastayı sunduk
