We present the case of a patient with the myocardial infarction as the result of carbon monoxide poisoning. We consider that a careful electrocardiographic and enzymatic monitoring of all patients after CO exposure is important for early diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction, especially because the patients often do not complain of any chest pain and ischaemic features in an electrocardiogram are withdrawing rather fast.
