Kounis Syndrome together with Myocardial Bridging Leading to Acute Myocardial Infarction at Young Age
Kounis syndrome, also named as "allergic angina syndrome," is a diagnosis in which exposure to an allergen causes mostly coronary spasm and rarely plaque rupture, resulting in ischemic myocardial events. Myocardial bridging is defined as an intramural segment of a coronary artery and its systolic compression by overlying fibers. Myocardial bridging generally has a benign prognosis and mostly af...
متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction related to smoke inhalation and myocardial bridging.
A previously healthy 26 year old woman who was exposed to smoke during a house fire developed acute anterior myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular fibrillation. Subsequent left ventriculography confirmed anterior infarction, but coronary arteriography was normal apart from myocardial bridging over a segment of the left anterior descending artery. The development of acute myocardial i...
متن کاملReactive thrombocytosis leading to acute myocardial infarction.
Thrombocytosis is defined as platelet count of > 600000. An elevated platelet count may be primarily (essential) or secondary (reactive). Acute myocardial infarction and other vaso-occlusive phenomenon are seen in less than 5% of the patients of reactive thrombocytosis. Here we report such a case. A 49 yr old lady presented with chest pain and had isolated right ventricular infarction that prog...
متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction associated with myocardial bridging in a young adult.
A 28-year-old man was admitted because of chest pain. Emergency coronary angiography showed a massive thrombus in the proximal segment and another occlusive thrombus in the distal segment of the left anterior descending artery. He was treated with thrombolytic therapy. Repeat coronary angiography showed disappearance of the thrombi in the proximal and distal segments and obvious myocardial brid...
متن کاملAcute Anterolateral Myocardial Infarction Due to Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning
Aluminum phosphide (AlP) is a highly effective rodenticide which is used as a suicide poison. Herein, a 24 year-old man who’d intentionally ingested about 1liter of alcohol and one tablet of AlP is reported. Acute myocardial infarction due to AlP poisoning has been occurred secondary to AIP poisoning. Cardiovascular complications are poor prognostic factors in AlP poisoning
