Myocardial bridging (MB) is a common congenital abnormality that remains asymptomatic in a large proportion of patients. The peak of clinical manifestation occurs during the third and fourth decades of life. MB provokes myocardial ischemia through different mechanisms including supply-demand mismatch, endothelial dysfunction, coronary microvascular dysfunction and external mechanical compression. The association between MB and atherosclerotic disease is controversial. Recent studies established a significant association of MB with myocardial infarction and non-obstructive coronary artery disease. The first line medical treatment is based on beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers. Ivabradine is used in second line therapy. Invasive approaches involving percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass graft and myotomy are performed in patients with symptoms refractory to maximally tolerated medical treatment. The choice of revascularization technique depends on anatomical characteristics, clinical condition and physician experience. Available data derived from anecdotal evidence view the lack of randomized clinical trials.
